Can I get a clarification re focused assessment? Most recently, if a physician documents "a sepsis exam" or "perfusion exam" completed, would that prompt the abstractor to say "yes" to the components required for a focused exam? And if so, would that still mean the components must be documented individually in the record? I may be mis-interpreting the latest CMS update. Thank you
