IV Infusions without site, volume or rate...Can we still charge for them in the ED?

I know good documentation is required for IV medication administration but sometimes we do not have certain criteria listed. We use EPIC and sometimes certain things are not added in by the nurse such as the volume or rate or site. Can we still charge for IV medication infusions without the site, volume and or rate included in the MAR? What about hydration infusions? What happens when multiple infusions and IV pushes are given but only some have the site listed but others do not. Can we still charge?

Any guidance would be appreciated even if you can only help with one part. Thank you in advance!!!
