Okay, I've included the progress notes for this, just to make sure there's clarification, I just need to know if I really can charge for post-epidural (using 62282) observation for one hour? this is a family practice and the only code for it is a hospital code (we use 99218). This leads me to believe it is included in 62282, and I can find no evidence otherwise...please advise
