Looking for some help with specific codes being billed as outpatient (Observation), however the facility is stating that the codes should only be billed as inpatient. The codes in question are: 63075,22554,22845,and 20931.
Also, 22524 and 76012. The physician office is mostly performing these surgeries on Medicare patients and billing as outpatient with reimbursement, however the facility (hospital), states they can only be reimbursed when billed as inpatient. I can't find anything that says we cannot bill these as outpatient, can anyone help with this dilema?
