Hello – How often do you scan a patients insurance card? We have set metrics to every 30 day, I am struggling with this one. Does anyone know of the MGMA standard?

How often can you report diagnostic imaging
Patient was seen 3 months ago for initial chemoembolization for hepatoma where diagnostic imaging was performed. Patient returns for 2nd treatment with doctors notation of partial response to therapy on the H&P. Patient has chemoembolization performed again with diagnostic arteriograms. Is there a time frame where diagnostic imaging would be medically necessary and reportable during subsequent chemoembolization procedures?
Thank you in advance!
Coding Poll: How often have you seen a knee loose body that measured 1cm X 1cm?
Just wondering if others out there have seen loose bodies in the knee this size on a regular basis.
MH & SUD Assessment, how often can these be billed?
Can mental health and substance use disorder assessments be billed more often than once per year? Let’s say there was an assessment done 10 months ago by a provider but they feel that another assessment is appropriate now due to the potential change in the patient’s diagnosis and health status. Would it be appropriate for the provider to bill another assessment (H0001 or H0031) before 1 year? Or is there a more appropriate re-assessment code specific to Behavioral Health?
