Can I bill an office visit and a wart removal?

It is strongly discouraged to bill an office visit in addition to the lesion removal unless the patient is being seen for a chief complaint unrelated to the lesion removal. If an office visit is billed with the same diagnosis, an insurance is very likely to bundle the E&M code, which cannot be billed to the patient.
