When a hospitalist discharges a patient from their inpatient hospital stay, but then later that same date the patient returns and is admitted as an inpatient again, how would this be coded? Patient is in from 05/24 to 05/25 and then inpatient again later 05/25 until 05/30. If I code a Discharge on 05/25 and an H+P for when they came back it gets rejected. Thank you
