From what I can find Advance Care Planning can be reported with a Medicare Annual Wellness Visit. Medicare states that the billing physician or qualified provider must participate and meaningfully contribute to the provision of the Advance Care planning, in addition to providing a minimum of direct supervision. What exactly does this mean? Is it enough for the provider to briefly review the HCPOA and/or POLST Form with patient then document that they did in addition to the documentation provided by an RN who is performing the Medicare Annual Wellness Visit.
