Can we use the bullet points from '97 guidelines to determine body areas and organ systems to audit under '95 guidelines?
Also when you are checking for the hernias/masses or obtain a stool sample, does it come under GI system or abdomen (body area)?
Does Exam of scrotal contents (hydrocele, spermatocele, tenderness of cord, testicular mass) & penis come under body area or organ system?
Last question - does exam of urethra (masses, tenderness, scarring), cervix (general appearance, lesions, discharge, adnexa/parametria (masses, tenderness, organomegaly, nodularity) come under body area or organ system?
Please clarify. It'll be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
