I am wondering if a patients current medications are listed under a section of the document titled "current medications" and you may have as few a one and as many as 20, and when we get down to the mdm section aka the assessment and plan and all the doc says is "continue current medications", would this be something we could give him credit towards prescription drug management? I read somewhere recently and now I can't find it, that the doc needs to state he reviewed current medications that the patient is taking, and state which medication that is and that he would want the patient to continue its use. Just listing the med's, I believe does not allow us to give credit for drug management. I think the med's need to be stated so we can identify if it pertains to the current condition. Any advice as to a link I can turn to for a hard copy to support my thinking.
