our ortho surgeon is under the assumption after talking with another surgeon that since he is a specialist that he can bill 99205 for every new patient is this true? i havent seen anything in the e/m guidelines to constitute this. also he was told by yet another specialists that they bill all new patients under 99455? is this even legal and how would that even be payable for all patients when its not recognized by medicare? i am soo confused any input would be appreciated
