Let's say I have a patient who presents to a psychiatrist as a new patient. Provider dx's him with depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse, and drug abuse.
If the provider states in his note that depression, anxiety and alcohol use are stable, can I give credit during as audit as follows:
3 pts for the drug abuse (as a new problem to dr) and can I give 1pt for stable depression, 1 pt for stable anxiety, and 1 pt for stable alcohol?
Or am I only allowed to claim one new problem (3 pts) and nothing else?
