Hospital Inpatient admissions have only detailed or comprehensive for history level.If there are not enough bullets in the HPI to qualify for an extended HPI, which you need to have for a detailed history. The scenario I have is a patient seen in the ER and then admitted. Would I use the lowest level 99221,even though this level requires a detailed history ? Any input or references is appreciated. Thank you
