Hello,
Can you tell where I can locate the criteria required to determine major vs minor surgery in the management options of the table of risk in the medical decision making component?
I’ve reviewed 1995 & 1997 E&M guidelines, global surgery info by CMS (CCI edits Chapter 9), searched the internet and asked Supercoder for clarification on the matter with very little results.
I understand the level of risk is determined by the higher of presenting problems, diagnostic procedures ordered or management options selected.
