The doctor's recorder broke, could not finish dictation. He had to be out of office for
several days after that. When he returned to complete dictation the charts that he was unable to finish, his documentation was very brief. Can this office visit be billed according to documentation:
Patient returns for follow up of fractured wrist.
Cast was removed.
Xrays look good.

Is this permissable....99211

[Also noted in the patient's record, is the fact that the recorder was broken on this date]
