Does anyone know if there is a guideline to a certain order you are supposed to list the ER levels with a procedure? For exampe if pt had laceration of finger and level 3 ER visit which way are you supposed to list them?
12001-883.0
99283(25) 883.0
or
99283(25)883.0
12001-883.0
I thought you are supposed to list the more expensive procedure first then go in descending order, but another coder I work with said you always code the E/M first for ER. I'm not sure this is right.
Thank you for the help,
Karen
