Good morning everyone.
I am looking for some guidance in billing for services that have been
started but now will not be completed due to the passing of the patient.
This is our first go around with this so I am wanting to see if any of you
have had to do this before and if you could please advise us on what we need
to do and if there are specific codes we need to use?
We appreciate any and all assistance. Hope you all have a great weekend.
Thank you
