My boss approached me today questioning why we can not bill 2 E/M codes in the same if:
A patient comes in to see a provider in the morning for a f/u on her gallbladder and then later in the day she is seen again by the same provider urgerntly for a laceration to the hand; a cut from a kitchen knife.
My boss is particularly looking at the Modifier 25 to attach to one of the 2 E/M codes since the OV's are seperately identifable services. I couldnt give her the answer she was looking for/a concrete answer. HELP Please!!
