Wiki can 90791 & 90792 be used in the inpatient setting

[slbennett]

I am trying to figure out if 90791 & 2 can be used for an inpatient event for psychotherapy or if the e/m inpatient codes are the ones to use?

90791/2 can be used in either inpatient or outpatient setting. The changes to the Psych CPT codes for 2013 eliminated the differentiation of codes by setting.

Thank you.
