Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Is it appropriate to bill for therapeutic exercise instead of fluidotherapy if the therapist has the patient exercising while they are in the fluido. Our OTs like to use the fluido to desensitize while the patient exercises. Or would this be construed as up coding?
