I am a psychiatrist and I work at a couple of hospitals. I have a questions that pertains to situations in which Inpatient authorization is denied by the payor for the hospital. In these instances, can I still bill for my services provided to the hospital patients. Our office was recently told by an insurance company that we will need an "Inpatient Med Bed Authorization" and with such authorization number I can bill for my services using 90801, 90805 or 90807. Typically I bill 99221-223 for initial visit and 99231-33 for subsequent care. I am wondering if someone is familiar with this issue and guide us more on how to bill for our Part B services when Part A services for hospitals are denied by payor
