Linda Barbar asked:

Hi;



i am having a difficulty in deciding the location ........

in this example why did we choose subsequent inpatient? why not inpatient consultation?

Answer:

[Tiffany Baca](4302073)

* [@Linda Barbar](3689998) The reason this would be subsequent is because the physician had already provided an initial consultation and is seeing the patient again to re-evaluate them for other possible causes of the rash; as during the first consultation the physician thought perhaps it was a drug reaction; so its a subsequent consultation and not an initial as they are seeing the patient a second time.
