Hello all!
When billing for neonatal weight based services (99478-99480) what is the appropriate weight to go by? Dosing or actual weight? Sometimes it differs and could be either depending on what you go by. I was taught to go by dosing weight but now am being told to use actual weight. Is there anywhere that has that in writing? I don't want to get audited and have it come back on me.
Thanks!
