I have a patient that we billed 59514 (c-section, delivery only). Pt has had double digit PP visits in the clinic for wound dehiscence with wound repacking and RX for antibiotics. Can someone provide a link to a reputable medical source that spells out if we can bill for these visits. What are the criteria for complications and when is a PP visit considered part of the delivery global? In our practice we are having a difference of opinion, so I really need to have a link to several reputable sources to help us know how to handle this situation. Thank you for your help!
