Can anyone help me figure out how to code subsequent observation day. For instance, pt comes into hospital and admitted to observation on 1/1/09, next day pt still in observation (what code do I use) and on 1/3/09 pt is discharged from observation to home.

I would code 99220 on 1/1/09, on 1/2/09 (xxxxx?), on 1/3/09 99217.

Please let me know. Thank you.
