Need help on this please. Thanks! 
How should the physician bill if they provide subsequent hospital care visit before the patient dies on the same day? I know that physicians may not bill for both a hospital visit and hospital discharge management for the same date of service.
Scenario:
On day 4, Attending physician visited the patient in the morning then @ 11:45 pm on that same day, patient was pronounced dead by CRNP who is covering for the attending physician. Patient is under the service of Internal Medicine.
