Emergency room coding: When a wound is cleaned and dressed, is the charge part of the E/M charge (global package) or can the dressing application be charged separately?
 
We consider it part of the global E&M. The only time we charge separately for dressings is in the case of burns. Hope this helps.
 
ED dressing

When a wound is cleaned and dressed, that procedure becomes part of your global E&M. For burn care - the dressings are included and part of your burn procedure. :)
