midwifebiller:
Can we bill 96150 (Initial health and behavior assessment) and 96152 (Health and behavior intervention) on the same date of service?  This is for lactation consulting.

Steve Verno CMBS, CEMCS:
You can bill anything, but will you get paid if you do???  Probably not.  They are mutually exclusive.

Michele:
Ditto

midwifebiller:
That's what I assumed, but I could not find anything in writing.  May I know where you got your information?

Thank you!
~Kelli

Michele:
I don't have a reference, just the knowledge I've acquired from experience.  But usually (for any specialty) assessment and treatment are not allowed in the same session.
