Hi ,
I know you probably see this question a lot. My scenario is a patient is possibly schizophrenia. The rheumatologist provider does not establish medical necessity to support patient is schizophrenia. Provider mentions that patient has memory loss in both the HPI and exam. Is is acceptable for me to report memory loss in conjunction to schizophrenia? Can you please put valid sources?
