Hi All:
I'm about to go insane and I need some guidance. We recently were married to another hospital and thus had a change of Tax ID. Everything I read said to bill the antepartum care separately due to the TAX ID change. Well, that's not the case. Oregon Public Assistance wants it globally as does UHC. Whatever.
My problem is ... We have Midwives that took care of our OB patient, and when the delivery came up, an outside provider performed and billed for the C-Section. One of our Midwives assisted. So, our midwives provided the antepartum care, the assistance at CS, and the postpartum care. HOW do I code for that? It should theoretically be a global code, but nothing I can find supports billing 59510 for a midwife. So, I'm wondering if anyone knows if 59510-AS is appropriate???
Any help anyone can provide would be so appreciated.
Thank you,
Deb
