Love your videos, they are very informative. I have been struggling a little with the 2021 E&M definition of Acute, Uncomplicated Illness or Injury vs Acute, Complicated Injury, specifically for orthopedic cases. Would you be able to create a video on that? Some examples would be a traumatic rotator cuff tear, meniscal tear, tibia fracture (one problem per patient), for which the provider recommends surgery as the patient continues to struggle with conservative treatment. Assuming the documentation does not indicate evaluation of other body systems not directly related to the injury. Would these individual examples be considered " Acute, uncomplicated Illness or Injury" or "Acute, Complicated Injury". Thank you!
Thank you so much!
