Wiki Critical Care Billing

[Srodrigues73]

If a patient is on pressors and a vent, but the physician does not actually touch the patient, but is monitoring the machines and meds, may the physician bill for critical care? Would you please share your resources as to where you found this info? Thanks

That was a good article. I'm looking for information that shows what the doctor does that counts for critical care when the patient is critical.
