A new Point of Origin (PoO) code has been created for reporting patient transfers from a designated disaster alternative care site (ACS). The new PoO was necessary to align with the Discharge Status Code for ACSs, DS code 69, created in response to the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE). Initially, the National Uniform Billing Committee […]

I am looking for a help on meds administration into two different IV SITES. For example:
IV SITE L AC established at 20:00– Benadryl IVPB 20:00-20:45
Zofran IVP 20:50 (coded as 96365 & 96375)
IV SITE R AC established at 20:05–Banana Bag IVPB 20:10–21:30 (coded as 96365)
Morphine IVP 20:10 (no IV SITE documented)
Reglan IVP 20:35 (no IV SITE documented)
Can Morphine and Reglan be coded as default to IV SITE L AC because the IV SITE L AC was established first at 20:00 or not coded because the IV SITES of administration were not specified?
thank you so much for help,
NIKI

Word-of-mouth referrals have long been the bread and butter of growing and maintaining a practice’s patient panel. Instead of face-to-face conversations though, much of this process now takes place publicly through online physician review sites like Vitals, ZocDoc, and Healthgrades.
So much so, that a recent survey by Software Advice found that 84 percent of patients use online reviews to evaluate physicians. And a surprising 77 percent use these reviews as their very first step in scouting out a new physician.
To really harness the power of these online platforms and attract new patients, physicians have to be proactive and find a way to stand out.
With so many patients flocking to online review sites, physicians need to create profiles that rise above the rest. One way to do this and leave a lasting first impression is to customize the physician and practice profiles as much as possible.
For example, there is often a part of the profile called the “practice statement” or “physician’s biography.” If these are optional fields — which is frequently the case — it can be tempting to skip over them and leave them blank. But filling these in can actually give prospective patients an insider view of your practice and personality — all things that can be the difference between them calling you first or someone else.
Our friends over at InboundMD have just released a step-by-step guide for physicians interested in crafting powerful online profiles and personal statements. In it, you’ll find all of the information you need including:
