1995 guidelines

The 1995 guidelines allow for 12 ORGAN systems in the exam - These are different from the 14 systems in the ROS.

For the 1995 exam Hematologic/Lympahtic/Immunological are all lumped into one organ system. An examination of anything related to any one of these area satisfies the requirement for that organ system.

Hope that helps.

Well most of the providers at the practice I work with identify aspects of the hematologic system in their exam so its usually not an issue. A co-worker said if they identify that there is increased warmth in an extremity that could be applied to the immunologic system specifically, I was just hoping to find some documentation to support that.
