Can someone please explain to me a question I have about the ROS ?
Here is the example I have : no fever, cough, respiratory issues or enlarged lymph nodes, all other systems negative. So when a Dr says ALL OTHER SYSTEMS NEGATIVE, does that COMPLETE the ROS ? My Dr says that completes it and I should count that as all systems being reviewed. I need some info on this because I am not real sure.

Thank you
 
A comprehensive or complete ROS may include a statement such as "all other systems negative". It should be said however that the ROS should be medically necessary. Hope this helps :-)
