If the physician sees the patient in Observation would I code the E&M visit with the outpatient codes (99201-99205 or 99211-99215) or do Psychiatrist have different E&M codes? Also if they see the patient 2 days in a row would I use new and established codes as well or would they always be considered a new? :confused: I have never coded these type of visits before so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
