I work for a CAH with method II billing. WE have two sets of coders- physician and hospital. WHen we have an inpatient we both code the claim- hosptial coders for the facility and physician coders for the professional fees. We have always been told that the physician coders coder per day and that the hospital coders code the entire stay. SO when someone comes in with nausea, vomitng and diarrhea and the next day it is determined it is gastroenteritis- hospital coders will code only the gastroenteritis while the physician coders wll code the N,V and D for day 1 and gastroenteritis for day 2. Is this correct? I have searched everywhere to find information that states physician coders will code per day and not the entire record. Please help ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
