Wiki Provider DX vs. RAD note

[AllisonZH1]

If the ED provider documents diagnosis of lower extremity DVT and the RAD note within in the chart states proximal DVT or occlusion in the popliteal vein, femoral vein, iliac vein- Can the RAD note be used to specify the diagnosis of lower extremity DVT as proximal?

Yes, the rad note can be used for further specificity.

yes agreed with @jojo2922 we should take specificity from RAD notes.
