Signs and Symptoms of the Best Practices

Since I work in ophthalmology, I tend to either accompany family to the ophthalmologist office or certainly hear details following the exam, surgery, etc. Over the past few months, several family members have had strabismus surgery, retinal detachment surgery, cataract extraction with IOL, bilateral blepharoplasty, retinal tear repair, basal cell carcinoma removal and glaucoma surgery, as well as numerous special testing services and exams. During those visits, I’ve found that, in addition to coding correctly, many of the offices I’ve visited have displayed what I consider to be signs and symptoms of the best practices. Here are a few of the highlights.
