Hi -
I am looking for opinions on this issue.
If a physician performs a limited echo to determine if a patient has good "echo windows" (i.e. will the image be clear) in anticipation of a full stress echo to be done on another day, can we bill for that limited echo?
I am hearing opinions on both sides.
Thanks!
