Looking for advice on this:
I have a provider who has told me when he is recommending a patient take OTC meds at prescription strength (such as Ibuprofen) he is considering this to be Moderate: Prescription drug managment for managment options.
When I am looking at these charts to determine the MDM ( # dx, Amount of Data, and Risk ) I look at this as Low: OTC drugs for the management options.
How would this be viewed in an audit? I have not been able to locate any specific documentation on this and want to make sure we are coding the right way.
Any input would be appreciated-Lori
