How long does a provider have to add an addendum to a patients chart for inpatient charges? I have a family doctor who continues to forget to chart his patients diagnosis
for every day the patient is admitted into the hospital. Example: patient is admitted on 01/01/13 with a dx of asthma, patient's second day of admission 01/02/13 has all charting but is lacking diagnosis, patient's third day of admission contains all documentation needed including dx.
