A hem/onc provider always documents that his patients, with an active cancer diagnosis, are considered to have a chronic illness that poses a threat to life or bodily function although he clearly states that the patient is doing well and stable on the current regimen.
I am just wondering if there are experienced hem/onc coders who are seeing this or what their thoughts are. I am not able to find any reference on this and would appreciate it if someone else has something.
Thanks so much.
