To avoid denials on claims for postoperative care:

• The date of service = the original surgical date of service
  • Be sure to enter the correct surgical date, including the year of service
• Unit of service = one 
• Include the date span of assumed care in the comments of the claim
  • Ensure the date formats are MM/DD/YYYY
  • Do not enter the span of assumed care in the From and To dates of service
