My coding department is being told not to bundle any coding on our Legal cases...these cases are not submitted to ins.company, the charges sit under a letter of protection until the case is settled.
We have always gone by NCCI edits in our practice, but now we are being told not to bundle any procedures for legal cases...."they pay for anything with a code"
Of course we will follow CPT, but other than that I am not sure I need to be concerned about this ?
If the legal company accepts all charges do I need to be worried?
Thanks for any advice.
