This is a in office procedure and sometimes i get confused on what is proper documentation for minor office procedure. I always thought there should be a detail note on how the procedure was done, kind of like step by step.

Is this proper documentation??


S: here for banding of one residual hemorrhoid complex
O: anoscopy reveals one complex
A: int hemorrhoidal complex
P: Banding
