HCM 201-Unit 1 Individual Project
The Evaluation & Management section of Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) coding is one of the most commonly used sections of the CPT coding manual. The patient- history is one of the most important aspects of this process. Using the resources available for this unit and any other resources you may find, explain what the role of a patient- history is in determining the correct evaluation and management code. In your answer, be sure to list and explain the four elements of a patient history and give at least one example of what might be found in each element.
Be sure to reference all sources using APA style. For more information on APA, please visit the APA Lab.
