Billing as on call dr

(1/1)

Hi! My dr and a couple other dr's have a rotation for being on call on weekends. We are not sure what to do if he see's another dr's post-op patient. I know we can bill it if the diagnosis is different from the surgery diagnosis, but what if it's not? If it is just a problem realted to the surgery, can my dr bill for it? We are pretty sure you can't, but wanted to get some other feedback. Thanks!

Michele:
If the patient is being seen solely for the same diagnosis as the procedure, you cannot bill for the visit.  As you stated, if there is a different diagnosis then you can bill the visit.
