The practice I am affiliated with currently bills consultation codes for their patients when being seen pre-operatively for surgical clearance.
When the encounter dictation indicates the patient is being seen pre-operatively and the only information indicated are diagnoses being treated or monitored to include the reason for the surgery with no hx, ros or pfsh and to refer to the details of the consult dictated at the hospital, no E/M code can be reported correct?
I want to make sure I am thinking correctly before I take this to the provider.
Any assistance with this matter is greatly appreciated.
