Hello all, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on a billing question I had. In a rural health clinic setting if a patient comes in for a DOT physical but also wants to have their annual physical done at the same time can the facility seperate the two? For example, make an appointmnent for the DOT physical & a seperate appointment for the annual on the same day. Can the facility seperate the claims in order to recieve reimbursement for the things that normally would not get paid for in a DOT physical but would be paid in an annual visit? I'm new to the rural health setting & am not used to the rules associated. I am concerned that this could be viewed as unbundling?
Thanks
