Can anyone help with the following coding question? I had a patient that was admitted to observation on 5-7-08 (99218) and dismissed on 5-8-08 (99217). The same patient returned to the ER later that same day and the same doctor saw him in the ER. I am charging the PC for this and do not know if there is anything else I can charge for the additional ER work done. The patient was assessed and given new medication at the ER visit.
Thank you in advance
