Hey everyone, new grad here and I just started Practicode with mixed emotions haha but I am getting better. Before I continue I noticed on two of the scenarios I missed points for coding for radiology exams during an ER visit (i.e. a chest xray was ordered for a patient with syncope but the correct answer was coded for the ER visit and an EKG that was ordered). Was this an error or this true to reality? I am on one now that is an ER visit with 3 radiology studies due to an MVA so I dont want to miss all those points if we are not supposed to be coding the radiology studies.

Thanks!
~Tim
