I have a question regarding billing a orif of the clavicle shaft with closed treatment of a scapula during the same surgical session.

if the decision was made at the time of the office visit to treat the scapula fx as a closed treatment. Should you bill the closed treatment of the scapula at that time or would you bill it at the time of surgery? provider stated he was going to look at the scapula under fluoroscopy guidance during surgery.

I could not find if there was a general rule or guidelines for this.

thank you, I appreciate any advice
