I'm only a fellow but currently rotating in some of my attendings' outpatient clinics. They pretty much told me to click 99214 or 99215 for every oncology patient that comes through.
If on chemo, then 99215
If just monitoring, then 99214
Will this be a good general rule of thumb for the future practice I join as a new grad? This seems much simpler than the complex billing guidelines we had to follow for our internal medicine residency clinic patients (x number of ROS and y number of problems = 99213/4/5 etc)
