We have had a discussion with one of our doctors so trying to find a clarification.

For the visit that a catherization is scheduled and they discuss the general risk of procedure do you classify that under Moderate or High Decision Making?

For the risk it is determined by the fact whether or not there are identified risk factors...what is requiredto count this? Does the doctor have to tell you specifically? Or can you pull it from the HPI and/or active problems?

Thank you for any clarifications you can provide...and if you can tell me links to get documentation to give even better.
