Pt received a TKR and was placed in Home Health services. Our physician prepared a Home Health Certification and Plan of Care for this pt outlining all necessary functions for this pt. The Cert period is for 05-23-14 to 7-21-14. The physician SIGNS the document outside of the cert period indicated. Can I still bill for this service or does the physician signature have to be within the certficiation period indicated on the HomeHealth form?
CPT codes used are G0180 for cert & G0179 for Re-cert.
I know that I am probably making this harder than it actually is so I am seeking a fresh new prospective outlook from you guys to assist me with understanding this billing.
