Are you a real SME?
Are you a “Subject Matter Expert?” Are you taking on clients, presenting to physicians, or looking for a coding job: with no expertise?
Do not “wing it” in the healthcare field. You will hurt yourself or your credibility unless you disclose your limitations to the person you are doing business with. (Not to mention potentially hurting the physician, client, or practice.)
Terry discusses this problem and how to overcome it in this episode of the CodeCast podcast.

Is a Medical Record “Errors Disclaimer” Valid?
Many of the records Terry audits include a disclaimer to protect a physician from liability. However, does this disclaimer shield a physician who has signed a note or authenticated an electronic encounter? (Under the assumption the physician reviewed it?)
In this episode of the CodeCast podcast, Terry discusses the protections of a disclaimer and whether this evades the responsibility, and compliance, of documentation.
