Would I code 99238 for hospital discharge after surgery? I know this is bundled w/the surgery, so I'm a bit confused with this question on a test I am taking.

Thanks in advance! :D
 
you can give follow up 99024 instead of assigning 99238/39 since discharge is included in follow up if discharge is given by provider of same specialty and if it falls within global period of surgery.

i hope it helps
