I work for an infectious diseases doctor and Wellmed denied my claim for "after reviewing MR, and based on the submitted clinical documentation, this patient doesnt meet for IP status, and the inpatient hospitalization is not medically necessary. Recommended status is Observation"
Does this means that I can correct the claim and rebill as observation with POS 22? I know that only the admitting provider can bill 99218. What CPT can I bill for the consultation? Can I still bill as Observation even when the Patient was IP?
