36415-MC denied as duplicate...

I have a pt that was seen in the office, and we charged a 36415, and MC paid. The pt went to a different Dr. for a different dx, on the same day, and they charged a 36415, and it was denied as a duplicate. Can 2 seperate doctors charge this code on the same day?

probably just one of those quirks of software

if they denied it, but you got paid and spent $4 of your time trying to find out how to get $3 for one of your colleagues. So just be sure to get your claims in first and let the other office fight it out.

Was the other office same specialty? That always messes things up.
