Can someone guide me as to where this note falls under with 1) Number of dx's or treatment options. 2) Risk of complications
New patient 99205 billed. I'm stuck on the MDM
71-year-old gentleman with metastatic prostate cancer with osseous metastases. His recent MRI does show epidural extension of disease at T5. A compression fracture at T8 is also noted. In this case, a course of palliative radiotherapy is recommended, consisting of 3000 cGy in ten divided fractions of 300 cGy each. T3 through T9 will be included.
The risks and benefits of palliative radiotherapy were reviewed in detail with the patient. He has expressed a good understanding and willingness to proceed accordingly. Informed consent has been obtained.
