Yes, the new initial newborn care code 99461 is 'per day', not 'per visit' as before. I actually prefer it this way, but sometimes questions arise. I appreciate your input and agree with you. We have midwives who want to bill extra $$ for the extra observation time, so I am seeing what we can do to accomodate them (ethically, of course).
Anyone else have any experience with NB care?
