I am seeking input from other coders about a documentation requirement I thoguht I had seen somewhere, but can't find, concerning the necessity to document who was present during a visit, when time is the basis for the visit...is this required, to state something such as "patient here alone", or "patient here with partner" in order for time where counseling/coord care dominates the visit? Does anyone know of a document source that states this as a requirement? I have reviewed the 1997 CMS DG and do not see it, and also searched Trailblazers a bit...Any help you can provide would be appreciated!
