The geriatric ROS is functional, not organ-based
Falls, continence, cognition, and ADLs have to be in the note. A standard adult SOAP hides the syndrome that actually drives placement and risk.
Geriatrics
Polypharmacy, cognition, and goals of care — Beers-list meds, ACP, and CCM monthly notes drafted from the visit instead of a recycled annual physical.
The problem
Falls, continence, cognition, and ADLs have to be in the note. A standard adult SOAP hides the syndrome that actually drives placement and risk.
99497 needs time, participants, and the decisions made. ‘Discussed code status’ does not meet the code and does not help the covering clinician at 2 a.m.
Monthly CCM and home-health certification narratives pull from the same visit but need different structures.
How Augustun fits
Falls, cognition, mood, and caregiver strain are structured from the visit instead of buried in a generic adult HPI.
Advance care planning and monthly CCM notes capture time, topics, and care-plan updates the way the codes require.
Fall, dementia, and status codes plus ACP/CCM CPTs are proposed from documented work.
ACP notes, CCM monthly notes, home-health F2F narratives, and LTC interdisciplinary conference notes.
