One of our patients had an epidural blood patch done after her C-section. The headache did not clear up right away and the patient stayed in the hospital for two days after the blood patch. Our anesthesiologists did pain rounds on this patient every day after her blood patch until she was discharged from the hospital. Can I charge for the subsequent pain management days after the blood patch? If so, what CPT code should I use?
