E/M DOCUMENTATION FOR PHYSICIANS AND NON-PHYSICIAN PROVIDERS

E/M DOCUMENTATION AND CODING FOR THE EMERGENCY ROOM

TOP 10 REASONS NOT TO ATTEND DR. WEINMAN'S DOCUMENTATION SEMINAR

  1. I don't care if I'm paid for what I do.
  1. I'm sure my documentation complies with the regulations, since I'm a good doctor.
  1. Why should I spend time and money on this when I could buy an expensive medical records computer system?
  1. How bad could a Medicare audit be?
  1. I've been thinking about spending a few hours developing my own system.
  1. Why fool with coding, I've got an office staff to do that stuff. (For your sake don't say this in your office)
  1. If Medicare fines me for non-compliance, I'll consider it a patriotic privilege to help reduce the national debt.
  1. I'll just put this notice aside and mull it over for a few years - I really don't need anything I didn't learn in my training.
  1. What could I possibly learn about documentation and compliance from a physician colleague that I can't get from reading the CPT coding book.

...and the top reason for not attending Dr. Weinman's seminar :

  1. I'd rather see more patients to increase my income, than be paid more for patients I already see.
