Under 1997 guidelines, as most of you know, there are the single-OS exams, and the general multi-system exam. All of the guidance I've been able to find says that the single OS exams were designed for specialists, but that anyone can use them. What I can't seem to find, is whether you can use bullet criteria from a Single OS exam with the Multi-system exam...
Some of the bullets that I think my providers are going for aren't on the multi-system exam, but they are scattered throughout the single OS bullets. How does that work? Can I mix and match with the multi-system exam, or is it strictly "what you see is what you get", with the bullets available?
For example: I've got the phrase "Speech clear and coherent. Functional cognition intact."
Under the Single OS Psychiatric exam, that's worth 2 bullets - Description of speech, and description of thought processes. Those bullets don't exist under the Multi-system exam. Can I still count them???![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
