Question: I work in a catastrophic rehab facility. I have a patient that is admitted inpatient and stays at our facility 4 out of 5 days. Is it appropriate to bill for inpatient on that 5th day when he is not here? I say no, but others are telling me yes??
Facility Charge when performing an injection
New to Outpatient billing and facility charges. If a patient presents for an injection can we bill a facility charge along with the administration (96377) and the medication HCPCs? No E/M was done by physician or NP. What if an E/M was done?
Physician vs. Facility billing question
We are questioning the difference between how codes are reported for the physician and ambulatory surgical center. The surgical center is not billing 29826 when Medicare is the insurance provider because it is not covered for facilities. Is this the correct way for a facility to bill because we will be billing this code for the physician.
thank you,

Good Morning.
Does anyone have a good stock explanation for patients as to why they are getting an E&M charge from the MD and the same E&M charge from the facility?
Thank you!

IR consultations and facility charges
Good evening,
If an IR provides a consultation service is there a corresponding "facility" fee? The question has come up with an IR wanting to perform consultations in the IR department of the hospital.

Hospitalists performing visits at I/P psychiatric facility
We have a group of hospitalists (NPs) who perform medical evaluations (H&P) at an inpatient psychiatric facility. We are billing E/M codes 99221-99223 for the H&Ps and the psychiatrists are billing their psych codes. Our diagnoses are primarily medical. However, in a lot of cases the patient has no chronic illnesses therefore we have to use a mental health diagnosis. Both services are done on the same day. Is it appropriate for the hospitalists to bill 99221-99223? Or would it be more appropriate to bill a consult code? Please advise. If you can direct me to more information, that would be appreciated.

For a facility charge what modifiers are/are not, if any, allowed to be used? There is some discussion in the office and we are just trying to be sure what is appropriate.
