Would the Admit/Discharge Same Day code set be appropriate in the scenerio below:
Pt admitted on 5/26. However the provider does not physically see the patient until 5/27. He/She performs their initial assessment (H&P) and then makes the decision to discharge either then or later in the day on 5/27. Pt has been in the hospital for more than 8 hours.
Thanks!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
