I was told to bill observation charges as outpt office visits with pos outpt hospital if the physician did not initiate the patient's observation status. Does this seem to be correct.
Thank you for any help to this inquiry.
 
Yes that is correct, if your physician was not the one to place the patient in observation then it is an office/outpatient E/M code.
