I have a question regarding acceptable documentation that physician was present during exam, reviewed Fellow note and agree.
I have a physician who wants to use a check list on the charge slip stating he was present and agrees with Fellow documentation. This is not in the "note", but is in the chart.
Is this allowed? Also, He uses one billing sheet for multiple visits so this is only stated one time.
I thought each note needs to specifically state what portion of exam was done by physician and that he agrees or disagrees with notes documented by fellow.
Please Help, getting a really bad feeling on this
