If the physician mentions "pt present with husband and son" in the HPI can I give credit for social history (married)?
Why wouldn't "son" or "daughter" count? Number of children is often asked, and if the patient is raising children or not DOES make a difference in social life, whether or not patient is married. Granted, rarely does one see number of children asked without marital status, but I do believe that tidbit is relevant.
