Hello all,
We all know how hard E&M coding can be so I want to clarify what we can or cannot bill. I work in a public health clinic where we see women for their yearly woman's wellness exam. According to our nurses, we have patients who come in for their yearly physical exam. During this exam, they discover the patient is sexually active but not on any type of birth control. The nurse then counsels the patient on the many different options she has for birth control. The patient decides to go with an implant, which the nurse inserts during the same visit.
Am I allowed to bill for all 3 services? The E&M office visit, the counseling, AND the implant insertion (99214 w/ mod 25, 99401, and 58300)?? Please help!
