I have a dermatology pt that was seen for spot on cheek, 1st Derm MD performs biopsy and determination BCC and request consult to Derm MD #2 for MOHS? Can Derm #2 bill consult for this visit?
 
Question, are they are in different Dermatology practices?
As long as the answer is yes, I would say, the 2nd Dr can bill for a Consultation, as long as it is notated in his/her record where the request came from.
