A consultation can not be a split/shared visit, but our physicians want to use our PA's for on call at the hospital. We are having alot of debate as to whether the PA's can perform any part of the consultation. Can a PA do any part of the consultation;like taking the HPI or the ROS, then the physician come in and do the exam and MDM? Then the pt would act as the scribe, making it clear the physician did the exam and MDM. Just wondering what others think and are doing. Thanks.
