Reading over the rules and consulting the medical decision-making (MDM) table is one way to get acquainted with the evaluation and management (E/M) office visit guidelines. But to really learn the E/M office visit guidelines, there is nothing better than seeing how they are used in real life. The following code scenario will help you to do just that. In it, you’ll find a rationale so you can see the decision-making process that went into selection of each MDM element.

Use these decision trees and chart to understand how the guidelines impact the way you code.
One key question on many coders’ minds: Can a clinician count an independent interpretation when he or she ordered the test? Use this chart to find out.
