CPT 11730-Billing Patients for Follow-Up

From my understanding 11730 there is no global. When we follow up with the patient are we allowed to bill an office visit if we see them in 2-3 weeks? Or is there now a global that we are unaware of?

As per CMS, there is no global period for CPT 11730. A follow-up visit can be scheduled for a patient after the minor procedure that will not be considered inclusive to the payment for the nail avulsion.
