Our clinic sometimes sees new patients who only want a flu shot or and STD check. They only see the nurse. I know we can’t bill any E/M codes for these situations, but can we bill these at all since they weren’t seen by the provider? I’m a little confused about how incident-to billing works in this situation.

In Office Lab Draw Only
If we draw labs in our office (CLIA waiver in place) and send them out to a lab for results is the correct cpt code for the lab draw 36415? If so, has anyone had billing issues?
Thank you
Blood draw intraoperatively
A potential anesthesia provider is asking if they can charge separately, and be paid, for drawing blood intraoperatively? They would be doing it for the lab for special pediatric and autistic patient cases. I have not dealt with this scenario before and would like to know if anyone else deals with this in their anesthesia coding/billing and how it is handled or charged out.
Thank you,
AAD
Blood Draw to Office Visit
The patient came in just for a blood draw but fainted at the sight of the blood (vasovagal syncope). PA was called to check up on the patient because of this and the PA did a physical exam. Can we bill an office visit for this encounter? We hope someone can help us on here as we couldn’t find any information on the web. Thank you!
