HI, can the facility side bill for consults?
ex: pt. missed abortion, er called GYN to do a consult and it was done?
thank you.
 
Don't think So

By any definition consults are provider services not facility services since consults are about physician/specialist expertise. Also as you know Mediare doesnt recognize physician consults let alone whatever the facility side of a consult would be. But there should certainly be number of other facility charges in the case of a missed abortion.
