Need some solid direction here please. Physician I am auditing is documenting as a letter to the referring physician. Components are there that support the CPT code billed. Historically I would allow these to be documented in this manner since everything is documented.
Are there any guidelines that you know of that says the physician CANNOT document in this fashion?
 
Years ago, our providers did everything in letter format.(pre computer days). As long as there is documented support for the CPT billed. I would have no problem with it.
