So this isn't a coding question, but I am hoping someone would be able to shed some light on my question!!
The clinic I work for is an FQHC - so when we bill for provider's E/M codes we bill to Medicare Part A, and labs go to Medicare Part B - and we then get reimbursed more with Mcr A.
So now the question I have, some of our providers see patient's in the hospital nextdoor - Inpatient's I know we still bill Medicare Part A, but what if the patient is an Outpatient/Observation?? I worked in a hospital before and we billed Medicare Part B for that... but does our FQHC status hold true for the Observation patient's also to bill Part A???
I hope this makes sense!!!
Thank you in advance!!
