Hello group!
Here's a paragraph I abstracted from a chart note for a99213 office visit with acute care requested from patient:
IV injection of Toradol 30 mg. and Nubain 50 mg. were given intravenously in an
IV bag. He was monitored for one hour. Headaches resolved. Discharged with a
driver. Vitals at time of DE were (3
given)
Here are the submitted codes from the chart: 99213-25, 96365, 96368, J1885, J2300, 96372. Also feel an extended service code might be applicable. But again, the 96372 is up for dispute, and I'd like to thank the special people from the forum who've recently helped me, Tessa and Rebecca W. IF these codes as submitted ARE wrong, then will be needing to take this up with the doctor, but so NEW to this....the DX is 346.10. So, how would you code this?
