If a obstetric patient has a change in insurance during the course of her pregnancy, we will usually bill the antepartum visits until the date of the insurance change, and bill the global charge (59400) for all subsequent care. We have an insurance carrier who is stating that the 59400 is the wrong code. The patient had 5 visit on the original insurance, and 9 visits plus delivery and post partum care on the new insurance. How would you code this?
