EMERGENCY ROOM BILLING

If a pregnant patient is triaged in the emergency department and then sent to labor and delivery, is it appropriate to charge for an ED visit instead of an office visit? No exam is done in the ED.

I also should mention, this would be in cases where the patient is NOT admitted
