Our clinic has started a new pain management program. Present during these visits is a MD, Pharmacist, and a LCSW or ASW from Behavioral Health. There are two separate progress notes that are documented for this one encounter. One from the MD and one from Behavioral Health. The MD addresses the medication and any other concerns while the Behavioral Health documents other behavioral diagnosis. My question is, can we bill for both?
My initial thought is to only bill for the MD since this is only one visit.
