The rules say for Medicare to consider coverage and payment for any item or service, the information

Program Integrity Manual Chapter 3 Section 3.3.2.1. 
 
The rules state that physicians in the same group practice who are in the same specialty must bill and be paid as 
though they were a single physician. If more than one evaluation and management (face-to-face) service is 
provided on the same day to the same patient by the same physician or more than one physician in the same 
specialty in the same group, only one evaluation and management service may be reported unless the 
evaluation and management services are for unrelated problems. Instead of billing separately, the physicians 
should select a level of service representative of the combined visits and submit the appropriate code for that 
level. Physicians in the same group practice but who are in different specialties may bill and be paid without 
regard to their membership in the same group. You can find this rule in the Medicare Claims Processing 
Manual Ch. 12 Section 30.6.5.
