Billing "extra" visits for patients seen for complications of pregnancy (i.e.DM)
We are getting denied while billing "sick" visits on our OB patients when seen for complications of pregnancy (i.e. Gestational Diabetes, Threatened Abortion, etc.). I have been billing w/ a mod -25 and a secondary DX of high risk pregnancy, but still being denied as included in Global OB, even after trying to appeal w/ office records. I am wondering if anyone has this problem, or maybe you can let me know what I am doing wrong! I have also seen some posts about holding these visits till after delivery, but not clear on that. Any insight with this would be great!
