I have a patient who delivered a baby in the car on the way to the hospital. She spontaneously delivered the placenta in the ER. My doc did an H and P on her and discharged her the next day. We only saw her for 2 prenatal visits. So my question is do I code it as 59430 postpartum only and then bill out the 2 prenatal visits? Or do I just do hospital admit and discharge codes?? Help please:)
 
You should be billing for the prenatal visits, the postpartum only, the admit and discharge, and the placenta delivery if your provider was in attendance for that.
