True or False: National Codes are used by healthcare facilities to report services to inpatients.

The statement is false because National Codes, specifically those referring to the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS), are generally used primarily for outpatient services rather than inpatient services. Inpatient services typically utilize the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) coding system for diagnoses and other specific coding systems for various services and procedures provided during an inpatient stay.

Healthcare facilities often rely on different coding paradigms, such as CPT codes for certain outpatient procedures and diagnoses, but for inpatient services, they utilize the DRG (Diagnosis Related Group) system, which allocates reimbursement based on the patient's diagnosis, treatment, and length of stay, rather than National Codes. Therefore, using National Codes specifically to report services for inpatients is not the standard practice.
