Janine is 41 weeks pregnant with her first child when she arrives at the birthing unit reporting that she believes she has been in labor "for days" but that "it's just not going anywhere." During the clinical exam, she experiences a few mild contractions, each lasting about $15-20$ seconds; however, her cervix is found to be only $2 \mathrm{cm}$ dilated, and the amniotic sac is intact. Janine is admitted to the birthing unit and an IV infusion of pitocin is started. Why?

Sabrina Barbara, a 23-year-old gravida 1 para 1, presented to the emergency department in active labor. She is at 38 weeks gestation and was visiting her parents here in town. She lives 250 miles away in another state. The patient delivered vaginally in the elevator on the way up to obstetrics. The emergency services physician, Dr. Zebria, delivered the baby. The patient will follow up with her obstetrician for postpartum care. Be sure to list the codes, one code per box, in the correct order, from top to bottom. Capitalization, punctuation, and spacing can impact whether or not your answer is correct. Follow coding best practices. Determine the most accurate procedure codes, using the CPT code set and modifier(s), if appropriate.
