e/m after colonoscopy

I'm new to surgery billing. Can i bill an office visit for a patient coming in for a follow up visit after a colonoscopy?

What is the global surgery period?

I would guess Zero, so you can have an office visit after the procedure if medically indicated. I would not bill a visit to tell someone their test was normal or they had a benign polyp and need a test in 5 years but if cancer was found a face-to-face visit is appropriate and billable.
