Dexa Scan Results

Hello! Is it appropriate to bill for a phone call visit to report the Dexa scan results on the same day as the Dexa scan or is the reporting of the results included in the Dexa scan code? Thank you!

It is not appropriate to charge a patient or their insurance company when they are contacted with the results of a DEXA scan. This is part of the cost of operating your practice.

Based on some other research that I did, I was coming to the same conclusion. Thank you for confirming!
