History Of Present Illness
The patient is a 24 year old Caucasian/White female who has a history of scoliosis, cervical spine disease, ADHD, arthritis, migraines. She presents today for a new patient visit and to establish care and has no current symptoms.
The patient denies chest pain, dyspnea, and fever.
Medications are listed in the medication list.
The patient has no medical records available for review.
The patient has had the following health maintenance exams: Pap smear and Breast exam Pap: 2015-normal Breast Exam: 2015-normal
The patient has had the following preventative vaccines: Tetanus and Influenza Tetanus: 2015 Influenza: 2016
The patient comes to this office visit alone today. The patient is able to do own activities of daily living. The patient is able to ambulate without assist.
Am I wrong that there is no "HPI" in here? How do I bill for a new patient visit if it requires all three components and there is no HPI?
Can I bill an established code instead so it is not a complete loss?![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
