Time Information in the Ophthalmology Chart Note

Based on your practice configuration for offline generation for a submitted code, the application generates an ophthalmology chart note. You can also manually create the chart note.

If the submitted code is calculated based on the total time, the generated document includes the total time in minutes, which includes face-to-face time and non-face-to-face time spent with the physician and/or other qualified healthcare professionals. In addition, counseling time (in minutes) appears separately from the total time.
