Patient came in for a post-op visit for a Status post right shoulder replacement for a proximal humerus fracture. (02-08-23). When the patient came in and the doctor did an x-ray the shoulder showed dislocation of the shoulder. The patient was sent to the hospital. The doctor also, did a consult once he got to the hospital and made the decision to do surgery the same day. Can I bill a post -op 99024 with the x-ray in the office? and a consult 99222-57 with decision for surgery? Or do I just bill the Consult with the 57?
