I work for a group practice where two of the MDs use a separate billing company. That company bills post op visits (99024) to Workman's compensation carriers with a charge of $250.00 and are getting paid!!! Has anyone heard of this? I want to get on top of this before the other MDs catch wind and want to do the same. I do not feel its proper or even ethical, at that, if they are following the rules of CPT. The treatment after the surgery is included in the surgery code for a certain time frame. Any thoughts?
