Problem: Now that we are wrapping up our last section: skill building, so we are practicing all patient types and the methodology associated with each.
This week think about how each type of patient visit is coded, based on the location or setting in which the visit occurred as well as the type of visit it was, such as a hospital inpatient vs. hospital outpatient Emergency Room.
Select one (1) of the coding types you completed in class that is your favorite.
1. Explain why you enjoyed this coding and what you found most rewarding about coding this type of patient visit.
2. Discuss the patient visit type that you struggled with the most and what you are going to do to turn that struggle into mastery.
3. What steps will you take and how will these improve your coding accuracy for that patient visit?
