On our progress notes under assessments there is an area for "Other"
In this area I am finding where providers have given refills but they have not selected a dx for the refill to go with and I do not see documentation for the condition in the present progress note. The dx that these meds go with are on the pts problem list but this problem list does not show in the progress note for that day. It is in another area of the chart.
Is it safe to say that anytime refills are being done the provider should provide a dx and there should be documentation of this condition in the present visits progress note?
