Hello:
We seem to have a mis-communication in my coding department on History and Physical requirements. Can we use the Observation History and Physical when the patient is in observation for two days and then is admitted to a inpatient status. I have been researching this online and cannot seem to find clear guidelines or requirements on this any help would be greatly appreciated.
