My doctor saw a patient on 3/18 for an inpatient consult. On this visit it was decided to do surgery on 3/23. He then saw the patient on 3/22 & 3/23, complications arose and surgery couldn't be done. He then saw the patient on 3/24 and scheduled surgery for 3/29. On 3/29 he saw the patient and surgery was cancelled still due to complications. There was another visit on 3/30 still stating that surgery will need to be done but no clear plan as to when. On 4/8 the pt. was seen again and it was decided then to go ahead with the surgery. Finally on 4/9 the surgery was completed. this was all during an in patient stay. My question is can I bill all dates, some dates or just the inital one on 3/18 because that is the actual day decision for surgery was made? Any help with this is appreciated.
