In the near future we will be adding respiratory therapy services to our inpt/out patient hospital. I just met with out new respiratory therapist and they are stating the below services are able to be billed separately from the facility charge. I am new to facility coding (all experience is pro-fee coding) and all the information I am seeing is showing these service being included in the facility charge... any information would be greatly appreciated!!

Cough Assist Therapy; Initial
Cough Assist Therapy; Subsequent
Heated High Flow (HHF) (each hour)
Tracheostomy Teaching
Transcutaneous CO2 Monitoring; Initial
Transcutaneous CO2 Monitoring; Subsequent
Transport- Vent Pt (each 15 mins)


Thank you!
