I am new at the Auditing thang (little fun slang there...sorry 
), anyway I have NO idea if I am doing it correctly or not. I have had ZERO training in Auditing. My boss just said, "here is the tool Tammy (the previous coder) use to use. I want these done weekly or bi-weekly on providers randomly." The last "audit" I did, the provider did not have a specific ROS so her codes needed to be downcoded (is that the correct word? I told you I was new at this ) After her review she said her ROS was in the dictation, like if she said "headache" I was to count that as psych. Is this accurate? Can anyone help me out with a resource I can use to ask questions or teach myself how to audit. I know this would be a great thing to add to my resume but I want to be sure I am doing it correctly.
Thanks in advance!
