One of the hospitals my doc consults at has changed over to EPIC.
The documentation for the consult I get does not have a "date seen" or "date of service", I told my doc he must dictate/type "date of service"......he tells me EPIC is real time and so the date "filed" is the date of service......I am not buying this as the consults from EPIC list several dates on them, they have "hospital encounter" ; date "filed" ; "note time" ; date "singed"
Is is common knowledge that the date "filed" is the date of service.....and will the insurance companies accept this?
ANY opinions would be helpful.
thank you for any help!
