Can someone please help me on the proper coding for the following scenario:
labor analgesic provided from 0840 pm to 0916 pm on day one (08-23-18)
csection provided from 0503 am to 0643 am on day two (8-24-18)
we submitted as 01967 labor analgesic
and 01968 c section following day
Insurance is denying.
Since they are different days should the coding be:
01967 for labor analgesic
01961 for c section following day?
Thank you!
Cheryl
