Hello! If an one of our surgeons on call are asked to see an inpatient who needs a central line placed and I have supporting documentation of an H&P stating they talked with the patient and family, exam and decision was made with addtional documentation supporting the procedure. Can we bill this exam under guidelines with the appropriate modifier? I find all kinds of information on this supporting both sides. Mostly stating its ok to bill with critial care codes but I was wondering about inpatient codes.
