This is a silly question, but I've always instructed my providers to document the technique used when obtaining (billing for) a Pap. The providers are stating they've never had to do this before and are pushing back. I find some documentation guidance in the Handbook of Primary Care Procedures, but I wanted to put the question out to the group. I have a copy of an old policy from my former employer, but it only states "....it is suggested...." Do you find "Pap obtained" to be satisfactory?
