StreamlineMD EHR Enhanced for 2021 E&M Guidelines

StreamlineMD EHR version 20.5.1 will be released on Monday, February 1, 2021 and will include an Interactive Tool to assist with the new 2021 E&M documentation and coding guidelines.

This Interactive Tool allows providers to understand and determine the appropriate E&M code to assign based on evaluation guidelines for medical decision making (MDM) versus time.

StreamlineMD recently published a blog summarizing the new 2021 E&M guidelines here. Or, you can also view the AMA guidelines directly here.

Please review these new changes as soon as possible to determine whether E&M code assignment based on “time” spent versus “MDM” makes most sense for you and your practice.
