Wiki MFM & Global Deliveries

[Nsolomon87]

I work with a MFM (maternal fetal medicine) practice whom also conduct deliveries on patients whom are high risk and would like us to be their primary OB physician as well. We currently bill office visits throughout their pregnancy because of the High Risk issues and coordination and care. When it comes to deliveries are we able to bill for the global surgical package codes since we are their ONLY OB providers that has monitored them?

How can you bill for the global, when the antepartum visits are billed as office visits? The global includes the antepartum care.
