Most important, we are a wound clinic not a home health agency.
Traditionally, when we see patients at home, the billing provider and a clinician go to the home together.
However, management now wants just an RN to go to the home and the billing provider be "present" via video telehealth. The RN may be performing procedures within their scope.
The question --
is this billed as a home visit (ems 99341 - 99350)
or telehealth (ems 99441 - 99443)
