Endo billing

Hey all, Question for those of you who are endocrinologists. Spouse is currently finishing up his stay at LTACH after ICU admission Diabetic, normally was very well managed Anyhow, primary doctor consulted pretty much everyone including Endocrine. Endocrine doctor saw him 1-2 times and then reviews his chart, and bills for encounters without seeing him. Says he sees him but doesn't. Is this legit? Do Endocrine docs bill without seeing patients/is that allowed? Thanks!
