Is there any way to combat this or is it entirely up to the office and doctor? Should I keep searching for an office that can handle my simple procedure in one visit?
I've become more sensitive to this after being asked to schedule a bloodwork follow up only to be told the results had been returned with no issues.
Background - I have a mole I'd like removed. It's a long term mole that has not changed. The offices I've spoken with state that they set a follow up for the actual removal. One office mentioned that they would first perform a biopsy, which makes sense if treatment depends on the results, but in the past I have had moles removed in a single visit.
Would it be a waste of time insisting they consult/perform or decline a procedure in a single visit?
Also is there a term for this practice? For example, the way up-coding describes scenarios in which an office may bill for unprovided services?
