Scenario: Patient comes into ER, psychiatrist is asked to consult and determines patient should be admitted to psych floor. The attending, within the same psychiatrists' Dr group, evals the patient on the psych floor on the same day as the ER visit. Can the consult in the ER be billed from the E/M consult codes (99241-5) and the inpatient psych eval be billed (90801) on the same day? We are wondering because of the Drs being from the same group.
Thanks!!!
