New Medicare coding for inpatient
The outpatient codes only allow for one visit every three years for a new patient visit, how does this work for a patient who has gone into the hospital for the same or different reasons multiple times?

no change to current
the visits are "initial visit" and "Subsequent visit"- nothing to do with new or established
