I have a patient who lives at home, but is enrolled in hospice care. She was seen a couple times by my provider in the office and claims are being denied stating that she is "under hospice care" Does hospice bring their own MD's in to see patients, or why can she not see her PCP since she is still at home? Or do I need to append a modifier? This is new to me, as we do not have many hospice patients. This patient had E/M and labs both visits that are being denied. Thank you!
