I need to ask something that I'm confused on. My auditor and I have two different opinions on IV's.
If a patient comes in with flu symptoms and they get:
*
Zofran 4 mg via IVP in left antecubital from 13:09 ? 13:10
NS .9% 1000 via IV bolus in left antecubital from 13:22 ? 14:09
*
Would I code 96374 for the Zofran and 96360 for the saline?
The sticking point is two initials in one access point and how to code the saline. If anyone can point me to clear instructions it would help me out a lot. I just want to know if I'm thinking thru this the wrong way or is she. I got dinged on my audit this month for this.
