When choosing the number/complexity of problems addressed, moderate shows as 1 or more chronic illness with exacerbation....To determine problem can fall into this complexity does the provider need to actually state that the problem is chronic or can the coder go by in the HPI area where they state problem has been present for 1 yr or 2 yrs? I have tried to place a picture here regarding this but it wont post so I have attached it for you to open to see what I am questioning. Thank you
