This was pulled from a pediatric resource:
Code 96110 may be reported when (1) two different tests are administered, scored, and interepreted and/or (2) if just one tool (eg. Connor Scales) is adminstered to separte obsereves (eg. father/teacherr the same patient on the same date of service.
My question:
In our office teacher and parent scales are turned in and graded by a LPN/RN/CMA a couple of days before the childs initial ADD/ADHD appointment with our provider. When do we bill for the grading? When the provider reviews the results and sees the patient at the appointment? Or when the LPN/RN/CMA grades the scales and sets up an appointment?
Thank you,
Theresa
