Hello All,
I wonder if anyone in the crowd can help me with billing for ED encounters?
I occasionally take trauma call on community hospitals and major academic hospitals and get paid by the hospital a certain amount of money to take these calls. I see patients myself in the ED in the community hospital and discuss the cases with the residents in the academic hospitals. Occasionally do trauma cases with the residents in the OR, or do bedside procedures (lid repairs, corneal gluing, AC tap etc).
I would not bill for the patients I have not seen (ie. residency saw and discuss the case) but I wonder if I can bill for the ED encounter and bill for the procedures?
Thanks in advance, looking forward to your response.
