We have a situation where patients are in an inpatient rehab facility. They are transported to our office for pain pump refills. We were told we could bill Medicare for the physician services and we are to bill the facility for the meds. We filed the office visit (99213 with place of service 11) to Medicare and they denied stating "not paid separately when the patient is inpatient". The facility is telling us we should put the place of service as a 61(comprehensive inpatient rehab facility) even though the office visit was in the office setting (pos 11). Our office has never heard this before. Does anyone have experience billing for the office visit when the patient is inpatient?
