Wiki Subsequent Hosp Visits - Global??

[Marybeth]

We have two cardiologists - one saw the pt and did the initial consult at the hosp. The other did a pacer implant. The first one saw the pt on subsequent days. Both are billing under the same tax id. Can the first cardiologist who continues to see the pt bill for the subsequent visits (and get paid)?

no, same specialty same practice you cannot bill the post op they are global to the practice.
