I had a physician ask me if he could bill a knee injection (kenalog) with an office visit. I said normally the OV is included in the Injection unless there is something else significant that was done to constitute an office being billed.
He then asked me to look up the allowable for the Injection and the Office visit for that particular payer and bill whichever allows/pays more.
Im fairly new to coding and feel you should bill what you did, meaning the injection but if the injection pays less he wants me to bill the office visit, is this right? your thoughts?
