Setting is Family Med; GYN and Psych
How many charts should you be able to review and code in an 8 hour day?
Answer:
Hi Kristi;
Thank you for your question. This question is asked often of people; especially those that are starting their career. Even though it is nice to receive feedback on what others productivity metric currently may be; however; it is not a one-size-fits-all kind of thing. There are a lot of factors that play a role in determining a productivity metric for a facility. I would suggest that you read the following articles; then discuss key points of those articles with your leadership team. Also; I would highly recommend that you research this topic in order to obtain more insight on the matter.
