When coding E/M is the coder ONLY responsible for the particular date of service that they are working on? I hate the feature of copy and paste! (Hypothetically) if you know that a provider has copied and pasted almost an entire chart note from a patient's prior date of service do you still use those items to determine MDM? Without those items it would simply be a minor office procedure, using this part of the note would add an additional E/M code that has already been billed for. Thank you in advance.
