Hi,
I'm not sure how to code or give points for this for the "history" section. How would you code this?


CC: Discuss MRI result.
Patient here to discuss MRI results, hx of scalp pain as described in prior visit. Additional info., pt states has been sleeping on left side for years, has hx of right kidney "cyst" which was painful to sleep on, so went to left side.

This is what I gave points on,
HPI: location and modifying factors.
ROS: GI and the integumentary

Did I miss anything? Thanks
 
Location for what? We have no idea what the MRI was even for so this information is all just past history in my opinion. I see no HPI or ROS.

I agree with LLovett, what was the MRI for, did it have anything to do with the scalp or the kidney? What is your location, scalp or kidney? What is your modifying factor, sleeping on left side? And how does this relate to the MRI?

All I see is past history, hx of scalp pain, hx of kidney "cyst".
 
Thank you for helping me recognized that. I would give the location for the kidney cyst, but that would fall under the past history already. Can the "so went to the left side." be modifying factor? Thank you.
