Ms. B wants to know, do you know what the term "locum tenens" means when coding? Those are providers who cover a practice for a physican when they become ill, go on vacation, etc. They treat the patients as if it were their own practice, using established E&M for the established patients and a new patient level if the patient is new. Want to know more, www.locumanTenens.com or www.swfc.edu.
