I recently to an exam for a coding job and had the following question:

What is the level of HISTORY represented by 4 HPI items, 8 systems on ROS, and 0 PFSH?

I have never been strong in E&M coding.... will some please provide with me with the answer? and explain the answer? By the way I guessed and selected Extended problem focus.

Thanks in advance!!
 
You are correct. Cant go above Expanded problem focused without PFSH (for outpatient) and you need to meet or exceed 3 of 3 history components. The other 2 parts of EPF are exceeded

2-9 ROS = Expanded
4+ HPI = Extended

I stink at E&M as well so i googled the 1997 E&M guidelines
