Hello fellow coder's,

I have a question about if a patient is doing dialysis and see the doctor for an office visit for several problems does is this concidered high risk in the MDM?
 
No. It qualifies for Moderate risk. If the dialysis is done on an emergent basis for acute renal failure then it can qualify for High Risk.
