Question:
A patient is consulted with ENT on 6/20/16 due to hx of SMA type 1 and evaluation for tracheostomy. They state that they will plan for tracheostomy on 6/22/16. I can bill for the consult on 6/20/16, but could I also bill for the subsequent visit on 6/22/16 with a 25 modifier?
Please advise.
Thanks!
Mary
