MBS ANSWERS

Should I bill an initial consultation or a follow-up the first time I see a patient in day rehab whose admission was under one of my rehab colleagues?

Context

I am working in a day rehabilitation setting at a private hospital (patients are admitted for the day for allied health interventions mostly after joint replacements and are inpatients when I see them). For patients who have come from an inpatient admission under another rehabilitation specialist, can I charge 110 when I first assess them, or would it be a 116?
