I work for an orthopedic office and I have a question about a physician's documentation and what I can count in the exam section of an audit based on the wording in the documentation. The physician frequently uses the phrase "Range of motion, muscle strength, and stability of the feet were otherwise intact". He says he should get 6 points for this in the exam section (RT Leg ROM, strength, and stability; LT Leg ROM, strength, and stability). The wording "otherwise intact" is throwing me off..... is it okay for the physician to put this and it counts, or should he say something like "are within normal range"?
