We saw a patient for an office visit while he was admitted to an SNF. Medicare is denying due to the patients inpt status. How should we bill this to get it paid?
 
You must bill the POS of where the patient is currently registered regardless of where the visit actually takes place. So if your patient is registered as an inpatient SNF patient, then that is the POS you must use for your office encounter.
