I understand the definition of a unique test and how it relates to E/M MDM. My question is regarding procedures that are more invasive than simple X-rays, EKGs, MRIs, etc. Hypothetically speaking, and please forgive me if this is not a situation that occurs in a clinical setting as I have just been recently certified if a physician wants an angiogram, biopsy of some kind, or a procedure that involves some level of invasiveness can they order it and then another physician performs it? If so would that count as a unique test ordered since it is used to measure physiological data through labwork or imaging? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
