Thoughts on this? Are rules still the same that you have to look back and see if the pt is new/established?

EX: HP completed on 03/12/18, but there is no admit/observation status until 03/13/18

CPT : all EM services provided by the physician in conjunction with the admission are considered part of the initial hospital care
when performed on the same DATE as admission.

So the provider is actually performing the HP, before the date of admission. We cannot consider it part of the initial care, because it was not performed on the same DATE as admit
