Can anyone tell me if they code inpatient lactation services to mother's bedside done by a lactation specialist, (not doctor or RN) or if the service is inclusive to the facility DRG.

I have researched and it seems some plans cover this as a service expected in hopsital care and some pay for it......

Any advice would be appreciated.
