Sorry may not have stated the problem the right way. Our DRS prefer to see patient's in our office before they schedule a screening colonoscopy,for a different day. The patient will come to the office the doctors will discuss the procedure and then the patient will go to our scheduler. We do not charge for this office visit. There are times, however, when the doctor (from ROS) or the patient will discuss issues other than the colonoscopy. These issure usually have to do with UGI. When issues with the UGI have been discussed can he bill for that office visit with the UGI DX code? Thanks
