Terry tackles a challenging topic in the appropriate documentation of prescription drug management when reporting moderate level E/M codes.

Doctors need to know that adding the current medication list to the progress note is not adequate to support this level of risk. Prescription drug management is based on documented evidence that the physician has evaluated medications as part of a service that is provided.

In this edition of the CodeCast, Terry breaks down the definition of PDM and how to support this part of an encounter to receive credit for it.
