suture removal
by Barb
(Rochester,NY)
A patient presents to the ER with a laceration, and the ER Physician sutures him, then tells the patient to see his doctor in 5 days for the removal. But instead the patient comes back to the ER for the removal.
Can the ER charge for that removal?
Response:
Thanks for your question. I'm not knowledgeable on ER coding so I'll post for our visitors to offer comments below.

The provider that I bill for just advised that he has a new tax ID. What is the process for this change? Would every insurance company need to be contacted?
