CPT Knowledgebase - Jun 18, 2015

A patient was seen in our office and received multiple nebulizer inhalation treatments (94640). They were treated in the office for a total of two hours (99354 [REVISED IN 2012]). Upon that time it was determined that they be admitted to the hospital. With the services that were provided in the office setting as well as the hospital admission what codes can be reported and what codes are inclusive to the admission? Is 99354 reportable from the office setting or is it included in the hospital admission?
