Wiki EKG reporting

[pherja]

I'm trying to locate written documentation to determine if the report for 93000 needs a separate report or if it can be part of record. Any help is appreciated.

Results of an office EKG should be documented in the chart note and the EKG tracing is kept in the patient's chart. I hope this answers your question

What if the physician was doing all the ekg reads at the hospital?? What would be the proper documentation for the review 93010?
Intitial and date??

Written Report

The code requires an interpretation and report, you need more than just initials and a date, the doc needs to write something about the tracing.
