In this specific circumstance, patient came in c/o sob has echo, sent for CT scan...later that evening doctor gets a call and admits patient for pulmonary emboli found on CT. Does an H&P / full admit at hopsital.
Assuming all the elements are there for billing, would it be appropriate to bill the admit on top of the office visit? Unfortunately, the office visit has already been billed so I was wondering if I can salvage the H&P since patient was not referred to hospital from office visit??
help is appreciated
thanks!
