I know that a lot of times we have to fish out info to pull together a note to meet a level but this one has me concerned if I am pulling too much:
nsg reports irregular heart beat
? ongoing issue and has had holter for same
seems irregular on auscultation to me as well
will check EKG now
our dr has chosen a 99231. that is all I have. my problem is that I am in a situation where I am to only data enter for this particular group. Sure that is all fine and good but w/in the early part of this year we will be coding from their documentation. These docs think this is okay documentation. Would anyone out there pass this as a 99231 (it is a subsequent visit inpatient)?
