I'm wondering how everyone requires their providers to document the time element when coding on time. Do you require is to be done right in the same phrase" 30 minutes spent face to face with patient, greater than 50% in counseling and coordination" or is it documented somewhere else in the note. I audit for two different offices, one documents as above, the other has a documentation of time at the top of the record then just puts the rest of the phrase along with what was discussed later in the note. My concern would be that no one outside of their office would understand what the time at the top represents. Thanks in advance.
