I would like to now how you few this?
I understand how to count and get the components to get to a Level 3 subsequent visits.
But my question is regarding the MDM. How do you distinguish between a High Complexity and Moderate.
Example: Say you have a patient with all these conditions below and the patient is stable. And doing better, I just don't see how you can get a Moderate decision making with all these Diagnosis being looked over. Even with the patient being stable.
My frustration is distinguishing when to break away from coding multiple CPT 99233 during a patients stay in the hospital.
Please no text book answer here. Real input please. I've read all the articles on this and it's not clear to me yet
Any input on this
1. Acute hypoxemic resp failure
2. Hemoptysis
3. Pulm HTN
5. pulm edema/CHF
6. OSA
1. Afib with RVR
2. CHF
3. CAD s/p CABG
4. htn
5. Hyperlipidemia
