Here is my scenario. A patient goes to the ER just before midnight, my physician does the H&P and admits the patient. The H&P is dictated with one date but the admit date in the hospital documentation says the next day. The hospital did not get the admit notice until after midnight. Which date do we bill for? :confused:
