Hello,
I recently had a conversation with a provider who stated that a patient is considered NEW (for coding purposes) when they have been treating under workers comp and then come in to treat for a separate, unrelated visit under their private insurance in under 3 years. (or vice versa). Coding a new patient visit has nothing to do with carrier, correct?
Thank you
