I have a question that I am stumped by. An established patient injects himself with testosterone in the presence of our nurse. I understand that a nurse visit cannot be charged with an injection but what about the situation where the nurse only observes the injection? Also have a situation where the Doctor placed the needle but patient pushed the plunger? How would you bill the injection? Would you use a modifier 52 (reduced services since patient assisted?) I am confused and patient doesn't believe he should pay:![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
