I have looked through previous threads, but still need help with New vs Established rules for my practice:
I have 3 orthopods, they each bill with their own tax ID. They share office space, EMR, staff and cover each other's patients as needed. They also call-share for emergencies at the local hospital.
Situation:
Pt is referred from ED for follow-up for a foot fracture and sees Dr.F. Dr.F wants the patient to see Dr.N (foot specialist), as Dr. F generally does total joints. Pt sees both docs on the same day in the same clinic. They both want to bill a New Patient visit.... can we do that?
Thanks!!!!!
