6

7 Terms and Their Systems

8 Problem Focused Exam Require: 1 body area or 1-5 bulleted elements New patient visits, consults, ED services, and longterm care requires that you meet the criteria of all 3 key components: 99201, 99241,

9 Problem Focused Exam Services that require performing and documenting 2 of the 3 medically necessary key components listed with the first levels of an established patient office visit are: a PF exam (99212) subsequent hospital care (99231) subsequent nursing facility ( 99307) long-term care (99334).

10 Problem Focused Exam In a 99212, the physician is examining that body area/system only. Example: a follow-up ear exam in which the OM is resolved involves the physician examining the ear only.

11 Expanded Problem Focused An expanded problem focused incorporates many body areas or systems a limited examination of the affected body area or system plus 1-6 systematic or related systems Only give credit for performed and documented medical physician examination findings that were done based on the encounter s medical necessity

12 Example: Our patient with OM on initial presentation has a fever, runny nose, and stomach ache. The physician examines those systems and documents his findings. In addition to examining the ear (1 body system), you have stomach under body system GI. Although the physician also examined the patient s nose, you still have 2 systems. Ear, nose, mouth, and throat all qualify as 1 system. If the patient also had goop coming out of R eye, the eye exam counts as an additional system.

13 The 1 Count Rule ENMT: 1 system credit no matter the structures involved.

14 Test it Wt 186 lbs Ht 66 in BP: 120/80 PR: unfound Temp: 99.0 POx: 99% Dress in disarray. How many systems? The answer is 1! Even though you have 7 pieces of constitutional information you get credit for a system once only.

15 Test It You have murmur documentation that indicates a cardiovascular (CV) exam and the abbreviation c/c/e. Is this notation, plus CV, enough body areas/systems for an expanded problem-focused exam? Yes, c/c/e stands for cyanosis, clubbing, edema

16 Expanded Problem Focused Physical Exam On 3/3 services, expanded PF is required for both new patient office visit code 99202, consult codes and 99252, ED codes and 99283, and on longterm care code On 2/3 services, EPF is listed as a component of 99213, 99232, for NF, and for LTC.

17 Detailed exam The 1995 E/M Documentation Guidelines distinguish between an expanded problem focused examination and a detailed exam as both requiring at least two body areas and/or systems and that one is a limited exam and the other is extended. Tip: For areas that your physician regularly examines, be familiar with his usual detail. That way, when you see more detail, you can distinguish an expanded problem focused exam from a detailed one.

18 Keywords For respiration: Documentation will have the respiratory rate, assessment of respiratory effort, auscultation findings and usually a re-evaluation of the respiratory system and usually a reevaluation of the respiratory system. For abdomen examination: Documentation would have how the abdomen looks in general, palpation of liver, spleen, masses, area of pain, degree of pain, bowel sounds, etc. Hint: If you re taking the E/M or AAPC s primary care specialty exams, know the difference between limited and detailed documentation.

19 Detailed exam A detailed exam goes to 3/3 key components for a 99203, 99243, 99253, 99284, the lowest level of observation care (99218 and 99234) and NF care (99304), as well as midlevel long-term care In the 2/3 category, detailed exam is listed in 99214, 99233, 99309, guidelines require: bulleted elements from 2 or more systems for a detailed exam.

20 guidelines: is an expanded problem focused exam of 2-6 brief systems. Example: Documentation includes: General: alert and responsive Ears: left clear, right fluid Nose: clear drainage Chest: clear CV: No murmur This counts as 4 systems examined for 99213

21 99214 Example General: Crying on Mom s lap with flaring nostrils ENT: clear runny nose, ears clear Resp: Resp. rate 30, substernal retractions, in obvious distress. Rales and rhonchi bilaterally. Will do neb and reevaluate. Heart: Heart Rate rapid but normal Re-eval: Improved but still having wheezing. Resp rate 20 will repeat neb Re-eval: Much improved, no further wheezing. Resp rate normal. 1 system in detail respiration, plus 3 systems that are brief: Constitutional, ENT, and Cardiovascular.

22 Comprehensive Physical Exam Requires a general multi-system exam of 8 or more systems or complete exam of a single organ system. For the complete exam requirements, see the 1997 EM guidelines individual single system exam requirements at: -management/

23

24

25 Exam Requirements Type of Physical Examination Problem focused Expanded problem focused Detailed Body System/Area(s) required 1 system or area (1-5 bulleted elements) 2-7 brief systems or areas (6-11 bulleted elements) 1 system or area in greater detail and 1-6 additional BRIEF system(s) (12-17 bulleted elements in 2 organ systems) Comprehensive 8+ systems OR complete single system exam (18 or more bulleted elements from 9 or more systems Complete single system, see individual single system exam requirements.)

26 1995 or 1997? Tip: If your practice or group uses the `95 guidelines, keep a copy of the `97 ones. Example: doctor documents edema and c/c/e, but not murmur. You could count edema for the CV, and clubbing and cyanosis could go to musculoskeletal. The 1997 guidelines show: Musculoskeletal: Inspection and/or palpation of digits and nails (e.g.,clubbing, cyanosis, inflammatory conditions, petechiae,ischemia, infection, nodes) Cardiovascular: Examination of extremities of edema and/or varicosities

27 Improve Your Vocab AAO: Awake, Alert and Oriented AAPC: EM certification audit sheet from Stephanie Jones's E-M for Coding Class Part (Stephanie Jones, CPC, CEMC) c/c/e: Cyanosis, Clubbing, Edema CTA: Clear To Auscultation DTR: Deep tendon reflex Edema: Edema is swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body's tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, it's most commonly noticed in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs. EOMI: Extraocular Movements Intact NAD: no abnormalities detected PERRL: Pupils equal, round & reactive to light & accommodation ROM: Range of Motion RRR: Regular Rate and Rhythm/ Respiration, Rate, and Rhythm WDWN: Well Developed Well Nourished WNL: Within Normal Limits
