Can a preop clearance be billed for major surgeries(90 global) only or can it be billed for 0 global procedures like endoscopes .
Per CMS, preop clearance(see below article) can be billed if medical necessity is proven but nothing has been mentioned about the type of surgeries that require a preop clearance.
