UCR 123: Thanksgiving episode; can you get paid for E&M for groin dissection counseling during penectomy global?
November 25, 2022
Mark, Ray, and Scott wish all a Happy Thanksgiving and answer a question about getting paid for E&M for groin dissection counseling during a penectomy global.
How does one code this: I performed a penectomy now the patient is in the global period but I would like to counsel and set up for a groin dissection. Is the counseling for the groin dissection within the global period free care or is there someway to code for/get paid for this visit separately within the global period using the same dx code for penile cancer?
