Can someone please help me on this, ER Dr. A did all the workup and he consulted Internal Med team pt was admitted, his E/M level is only 99283 (he isn't very good at documentation), as pt going up to floor pt collapsed Dr. B started CPR, Intubated, and did a Femoral line now I am kind of confused as to how to code for both Dr's , our hosp has a policy that the person who discharges pt his name is what is on the chg which is Dr. A, but this looks to me like critical care by Dr. B so I really don't know what I should do, can I ask Dr. B about critical care and if he says yes can I give Dr. A his E/M level I didn't think I could but not sure (both are ER Dr.s) we code for both facility and profee..any and all help is appreciated..alice
