Hello, I am new to the neurosurgery and neurology coding and have a question. There is a new physician who I have just started coding for and he is a neuro intensivist. He works in the neuology ICU. My question is......is there a limit on how many days in a row that he can code CCT? He documents very well and is truly with the patient giving critical care. I have told him that when he goes into the 3rd or 4th days of charging for it there needs to be other dx's added to explain why the patient is still critical. Has anyoone ever run across this before?
Thank you!!
