The ER (or ED) is an outpatient facility of the hospital.

I notice that you replied to your own message so you could present additional information and questions.

There is a better way to accomplish this, especially when you realize the deficiency within minutes of posting your first message. Click the EDIT button in the lower right corner of your original message. Doing this lets you add to the first message and/or change text in that first message. When you're done editing, cluck SAVE.

you would code just the ed provider and due to asking for a consult with the psych dr. you would add that to the MDM when putting your level on the acct. the psych office would code for the consult that the psych made at the ed.
