A Medicare patient is under a 90 day global for knee replacement, the patient is concerned there is a problem with the incision and comes into see a family practice physician to look at the incision, no problem is found. Does Medicare allow an EM level to a physician other than the surgeon for post-op related visits? The GP is not the same speciality, so this would be different physician/different speciality, correct? I'm not sure if I can bill for this visit. Any help, direction would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help!
