Billing Suture removal for surgery done by another physician
We have a patient who came for suture/staple removal. Our physician did not perform the surgery. Surgery was in another city. How do I bill this office visit since it is in the global period.

re: Billing Suture removal for surgery done by another physician
I would think you can bill this as office visit since your physician is not connected to the surgery. I would not use a modifier.
