Yes. The appropriate process should involve billing a 99211, or nursing visit. Any time a 99XXX code is used, a copay is withheld from the insurance payment, which must be paid by the patient.

What is the difference between copay and coinsurance when you have primary and secondary insurance?
A copay is a "set" dollar amount you pay at the time of treatment. For instance, a $35 doctor copay. If you have level one doctor visits, you pay nothing more than the $35 doctor copay. Co-insurance is the percentage you share with the insurance company after your deductible has been met. When you have two policies - your primary insurance will pay first (subject to deductible and co-insurance), and then your second policy starts with the balance left from the primary policy (subject to deductible and co-insurance again). For instance a primary policy with a 5,000 deductible and 80/20 co-insurance of $5000. Your bill for surgery is 6000. You pay 5,000 + 20% of $5000 (1000) = $6000.00 Your balance of your surgery bill is 0

Medicaid will pay the copay only if the amount of the copay added to whatever the primary insurance paid is less than or equal to what Medicaid would allow for that charge to begin with. Like charge of $50 for a visit, and the copay is $10 and the primary insurance paid $3 and Medicaid allows $15 for that particular code. Then Medicaid would pay $12.00 of it. This is highly unlikely, though.
