Hello All,
I am perplexed with reviewing some notes. If a patient has two or more stable chronic illnesses or a undiagnosed new problem and then gets a prescription, I would consider this moderate following the the medical decision making table. However; I have also heard that a new problem with a prescription does not have to substantiate a moderate level. I have also had different opinions in the event of prescription refills. Because it is a refill would that then be considered low? Again I have heard many different opinions on this. Any input would be great.
Thanks,
Joanne
