Does anybody know if the ER department at hospital and the ER doctor can bill for same charge?
Example: Patient A went to ER department for pain in thumb. patient saw doctor, had X-ray, and then splint put on.
Patient received EOB's from Insurance company. The ER doctor charged for visit and 29130(application of splint) which the nurse did. The EOB from Hospital charges is the ER visit and 29125 Application of splint.
The question is can the Hospital and the ER doctor charge for the same thing?![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
