I really need to be directed to some guidelines regarding this.
I code for a group that has an office in the professional building attached to one of our local hospitals. Some of the patients being seen are inpatient at the hospital and are brought over for a consult or some type of treatment. I'm not exactly sure why the doctor doesn't round on them in their room, but I need to know if its ok that the doctor is using inpatient codes, and an inpatient place of service for these patient. Can someone direct me to something definitive regarding this?
