I code for an ortho group that is now doing physical therapy. I have an issue where a patient was referred to PT and had a few sessions before the decision for surgery was made, (first session was billed out with 97001) for torn labrum. My question is, one month later the Physical Therapist is wanting to bill for another initial evaluation(97001). Im thinking it would be the re-evaluation (97002) based on the fact that it is still relating to the shoulder, no other new problem. Which is correct?![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Any help is greatly appreciated![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
