Hi. My OB doc admitted a patient in active labor to the hospital. She was seen only the one time. Her regular provider did come in and do the delivery. The only things going on with this patient is that she was in active labor, first pregnancy, 38 weeks. There are no active labor codes, and this isn't like we were seeing this patient for antepartum care, so I'm uncertain how to code the diagnostic portion of this. Do I actually use the supervision of pregnancy diagnosis code? I don't want to mess up the primary provider's global. Any help would be appreciated.
