Wiki Planned return to OR

[OOSMCcoding]

May we get further clarification on this scenario. Our provider performs surgery with the intent of a planned return to the OR at a later date. It is our understanding the patient visits in our office between those two surgeries are still under the initial Extender for active treatment.

Is this correct?

Thank you

That is correct if those visits are related to either surgical procedure.
