Hi to all,
I have a document stating a "Discharge Summary Under 48 hrs" , I know the E/M code of 99238 & 99239, but the documentation only has the Final Dx, Operation Done (on the Date of Admission), Discharge Meds, & Discharge Instructions, i don't have enough data to come up with the right E/M for it. Would i settle for the for the discharge E/M codes or is there other E/M that would best describe the encounter? need your opinion anyone.
Thank you:
