GOLD and exacerbation history drive the plan
FEV1, CAT/mMRC, and exacerbation count have to be in the note or the inhaler step-up and oxygen qualifying look invented.
Pulmonology
COPD and asthma clinic, EBUS, and home oxygen — GOLD staging, spirometry, and biologic prior-auths drafted from the visit and the procedure.
The problem
FEV1, CAT/mMRC, and exacerbation count have to be in the note or the inhaler step-up and oxygen qualifying look invented.
Node stations, needle passes, and specimen handling belong in a procedure note. Dumping them into the consult is how pathology and coding diverge.
Saturation at rest and exertion, date, and qualifying diagnosis have to match LCD language. A ‘O2 sat low’ line does not qualify the patient.
How Augustun fits
COPD, asthma, ILD, and sleep-adjacent clinic visits capture spirometry, symptoms, and inhaler technique from the conversation.
EBUS-TBNA and chest-tube notes keep indication, findings, and complications in a procedure structure.
COPD/asthma ICD-10 plus bronchoscopy and spirometry CPTs are proposed from documented work.
EBUS notes, chest-tube notes, home-oxygen qualification, and severe-asthma biologic prior-auth letters.
