I work in a pediatric practice and have some of my colleagues refer a patient to me for a lactation consult on the same day they saw the patient for a well child visit. I have yet to figure out how to code for a visit on the same day they saw the MD for a visit. Any suggestions for coding will be appreciated. My understanding is the insurance companies will not pay for two visits in one day. I don't want to code for an extended visit but for a separate counseling/education visit. Thanks!
