Our doctor is wanting to bill for a discharge from the SNF, however, it is for the death certificate and all of the paperwork. I do not feel the 99315 or 99316 is the appropriate code, if it is, please let me know and if it is not, what can I use for the mounds of paperwork that comes with discharging a patient from a SNF due to death.
To make it more clear, he is not pronouncing these patients. I have been denied for SNF codes in the past, but not for inpatient but the inpatient he is pronouncing.
