I have a pt I saw a few times through a telemed company. Very quick med mgmt visits. I filled out STD paperowkr and now pt is looking for LTD.
I don't know the pt that well nor was I concerned about their risk level and to be frank I'm not sure if it's merited. Uncomplicated mood DO/trauma related.
My initial impulse is to decline the request. My guess is that patient will be very pissed off as the STD request came at visit #2. Just curious as to the approach people take for LTD requests for their own outpatients. I preferably wouldn't fill one out unless I have seen the patient for a year unless they have SMI. Thoughts?
