Hi,
We are trying to understand why this encounter would be coded like it is:
1.Calcium IVPB 9:25-9:57a (separate bags, one line)
2.Magnesium IVPB 9:25 -9:57a (separate bags, one line)
3.Zofran & Decadron 10:02-10:22a (same bag, one line)
4.Oxaliplatin 10:35a-12:40p
5. Calcium IVPB 12:50-13:25 (separate bags, one line)
6.Magnesium IVPB 12:50-13:25p (separate bags, one line)
7. 5 FU IVP 13:30-13:40p
8. Avastin 13:47-14:17p
Here is how we coded:
1. 96367
2. 96367
3. 96368
4. 96413, 96415
5. & 6. 96366 <--- why use this code for the 2nd dose of Cal/Mag (we are only getting credit for one med)
7. 96411
8. 96417
