The E/M University Pocket Coding Guide (Revised November 2008)


This is the official E/M University Pocket Coding Guide and includes all the information you will need to concisely document any encounter using EITHER the 1995 or the 1997 E/M guidelines. There are also tips to help streamline the documentation of the history. For best results, download and print out on both sides of a single legal-sized sheet of paper.


The E/M University Pocket Coding Guide (VA/TX/OK/CO/NM (You have different rules!)

This is our E/M coding guide for providers who live in VA, TX, OK, CO and NM. Your Medicare carrier is TrailBlazer and they use a completely different set of rules for quantifying the key component of medical decision-making.


The E/M University Hospital Progress Note Template


Use this template to quickly document the key components for hospital progress notes. The unique format helps you calculate the history, exam and medical decision-making as you go, so you can always select the "correct" level of care.

The E/M University Established Office Patient Template


Use this template to organize and efficiently document the key components for established office visits. You can add up the history, exam and medical decision-making as you go, so you always select the "correct" level of care.


The E/M University NEW OFFICE PATIENT/CONSULT Questionnaire


Use this form to quickly gather all the information you will need from a new office patient or new consult to complete a comprehensive past medical, family and social history as well as a complete review of systems. Once the patient completes the form, all you have to do is review it and comment on the pertinent findings in your dictated note.


The E/M Univeristy RETURNING OFFICE PATIENT Questionnaire


Use this form to quickly and accurately document any changes which may have occurred in the past medical, family or social history and the ROS since the patient's last visit. Let the patient complete all the elements of history, so you won't have to. The E/M guidelines DO allow you to refer to a form or questionnaire when completing the history--so take advantage of this shortcut!
