Need feedback on the proper documentation of a procedure, I have included a snip of documentation we are seeing for some of our procedures in e.g. ( endometrial biopsy). Any feedback on if this qualifies as sufficient documentation would be greatly appreciated.

Insufficient documentation

Hello,

The snip-it of the documentation for your procedures is insufficient documentation; it looks more like an examination performed during an e/m service. Is your provider using an EMR system? I would recommend seeing if some type of template could be set up for their procedures, this way they will be geared to document correctly.
