inpatient reimbursement
Patient was seen by PCP and had chest xray for COPD. Next day, patient came to ER and was admitted for same Dx. Is the chest xray included in the inpatient reimbursement? If not, how do I get the insurance to pay? Thanks

What are you billing? Who are you billing for?
If the CXR was done in your office on your equipment, you should get paid. If you sent the patient to the hospital for the xray and they bill for it, it will be bundled into the Inpatient payment as it is the same diagnosis.
