Wiki Place of Service Question - surgical procedure

[Mklaubauf]

Medicare patient was in Swing Bed, then had a surgical procedure done. I don't have a problem coding the POS for Swing bed E/M , but what POS do I use for the surgical procedure?

Thanks for the help

If the hospital has the pt's status as swing bed on the date the procedure was done then you would use pos 32 still.
