I'm sure I know the answer to this question, but asking where to find supporting resources for the physician.
Scenerio: Physician see's a patient in-house while pt is admitted, charges and IP consultation. After pt is discharged, pt returns to that same phsycian's outpatient office... this visit would be considered an established OV because the physican seen this same patient in house, correct? This is what we have been following and we cannot find any supporting resources stating so. Any suggestions? Thanks!
