an office note was signed illegibly on the DOS but then there is a legible signature from the physician one day later.
I believe another provider such as PA examined patient and signed office note and then the physician reviewed and signed.
Since the guidelines state face to face and I can't read the provider signature, is it acceptable to code with the physician's signature and date?
