Can anyone provide here latest emergency department coding guidelines?
 
Your question is to general you need to be more specific, but I would start with looking at your CPT guidelines for emergency department services.
 
Facility coding guidelines are different. Each facility sets their own criteria. Some may follow AECP guidelines, some may use a modified version or completely different. Facility takes in resources used into consideration where professional is based on History, Exam & MDM.

So we bill only E/M level code (99281-99285) for professional and E/M (as per ACEP guideline) along with Infusion/injection/monitoring etc for facility coding, right?
