One night inpatient admissions
Date: Oct 10, 2012
Question:
Dr Z. We are continuing to have physicians who admit their cath lab patients as inpatients rather than outpatients and then send them home the next day. In your seminar you addressed this issue however I am unable to find written documentation of what you said. So, would you please cover this topic in this format? Thank you!!
