Guest guest Posted January 15, 1999 Report Share Posted January 15, 1999 We have opened up a subacute unit in our acute care hospital. It is a 17 bed unit and is only an eight day stay. We offer PT OT seven days a week. As of now Speech is on an as needed basis because we do not have many speech patients admitted to the unit as of yet. We just started PPS January 1 1999. We are very confused and have many questions. Hopefully you can help. For patients that receive modalities such as tens hotpacks, whirlpool, etc, do we charge for these modalities, is it considered a treatment and does it then need to be calculated as minutes of treatment which would then take time away from their allotted treatment time. We are still billing on the same charge ticket that we bill for our acute care patients. Should we be using a different form? If we should be using a different form can someone please guide us or if possible send a copy of a charge form. Fax Number Thanks for any help or guidance. Carol. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
