I'm stumped....ob prenatal care, delivery and no post partum care
how do I code this
I'm thinking 59400-52:confused:
 
another option

I would lean toward 59409 (vag delivery only) plus 59425 or 59426 depending on how many antepartum visits she had.

Hi Rachele,

I'm with Cara; no Modifier -52 on your global OB package. Use the Vaginal delivery only code plus the appropriate code for however many antepartum visits you had.

Have a super day. Susan :)
