I need clarification for Medicare patients.
I work for an orthopedic practice and one of my doctors told me x-rays need to be included in the original dictation BUT also needs to have a separate dictation/documentation.
I am not aware of a Medicare rule stating this. I went onto their website but I am not able to find anything to substantiate this.
Does anyone know what the rule is for x-rays?
Thanks for your help!
