My cardiologist sees patients in the cath lab as the primary physician. She does an HPI for every patient, if the patient only has a cath, they are discharged the same day. If they also have a stent placement, they stay overnight but usually discharged before 24 hours, how are these stays coded. Am I using the observation admit and discharge same day code for both? Thank you.![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
