My question is simple.. when there is a 760 OBV
charge on the claim with an 450 ER charge as well.
That claim is no longer a ER bill correct?
ANSWER
Pre-anesthesia consultation (ie referral by the
surgeon to the anesthetist) prior to surgery, can
someone explain to me the criteria for code
selection 99241,99242,99243,99244 or 99245?
Because many times HPI will have few elements
only when Medical decision making will be High.
ANSWER
Anesthesia Consultation
Glaucoma Coding
For Glaucoma bilateral dif types and dif stages, code each
type but highest stage correct? Thanks, Carolyn
ANSWER
Hi! So if you are coding for the physician services only in the ED setting and the physician is NOT an employee of the hospital - he is independent of the hospital, and the patient is admitted to the hospital do you code the level charge from 99221-99223 or 99281-99285 for the physician services? Thanks! Linda ANSWER
Physician Services 99221 or 99281
Modifiers OB and OA
Was doing a practice test and came across this question.
"Which modifier would you use to report with code 88239 if
the test was looking for hereditary cancer?" I can't even
find these modifiers in my book(CPT prof edition) the
answer sheet reports to look in Appendix I under sub
category Cytogenetic studies.Thanks ....Sue
