If a patient is seen in the office for asthma exacerbation but gets admitted on the next day for worsening asthma, what level can we bill the hospital consultation?

If you perform an evaluation and management service in the office for “asthma exacerbation” on Monday, then, when the patient is admitted to the hospital on Tuesday, you may not report a consultation code. You should report the initial hospital visit code (99221-99223), which is supported by your documentation. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
