Our providers are trying to bill an E/M visit as well as the procedure in an ASC setting.

My argument has been that they are planned procedures therefore E/M can not be billed.
Their argument is they should be able to bill E/M visit for patients they haven't seen before because they coucil the patient on the procedure and take history.

Any thoughts?
