We are having difficulty with reimbursements for Hospital discharge with same day Nursing Home admit. Most insurances are paying only one charge, either the discharge CPT 99238-99239 or they will pay Nursing home admit CPT 99304-99306. According to coding guidelines, we can report separately. However, we are only getting paid for one of the charges. Does anyone have any insight on this subject?
