I asked this on the dermatology forum as well. I have no experience of what constitutes a specialty dermatological exam.

Basically, patient comes in for follow-up screening 2 years post-treatment for melanoma.

He has a "lesion" on the nose.

Doctor documents " full head to toe dermatological exam reveals lesion on nose".

He also documented vitals. Nothing else. Would this verbage constitute a comprehensive single-specialty exam?

I didn't think so as it provides no detail so I gave an EPF level.

Any thoughts?
 
I agree with you. The above mentioned document not warranted for detial/comprehensive single specialty exam.
