Settle a debate please. When a anesthesia case is marked as broken medical direction due to lack of documentation for being present during induction (or emergence), is that case excluded from concurrency? My thought is no, because the physician's participation in that case could be a part of other concurrent cases, potentially resulting in "5's" (medical supervision rather than direction). Failing to report this could result in over charge applicable payers. Am I wrong?
