Question 7

does a hospital coding team ever make health care decisions, such as the decision to place a diagnosis on a patient's problem list (two years after the patient was seen and testing billed)?

Accepted Answer

: If a review of a medical record shows definite evidence of a diagnosis that a doctor did not list on the "face sheet" they may add it to the face sheet. The coding team does not make treatment decisions, but they do occasionally clean up the documentation mistakes of the attending doc. If there is definite evidence in the chart, it is both appropriate and improves accuracy of the record.

Question 8

ive seen people start on trenbolone steroid with crazy results. im aware this is an anabolic steroid but i was wondering what kind of adverse medical effects it has on the body? will every one who uses it eventually get some type of health problem?

Accepted Answer

: The biggest issue is reduction in your body’s innate testosterone production leading to hypogonadism &amp; testicular shrinkage. This may lead to a requirement for supplemental testosterone for the rest of your life. So you’re probably better off training drug-free if this is not appealing to you.

hello there.
i am a dental student.
i have a health problem which i have been facing for some months , but with no values.
i have started to feel hand tremors two years ago. but during this time i have seen that it is not localized only in my hands ?

Accepted Answer

:  This isn't really the kind of issue that can be tackled on -line with a general healt/ medicine education site. I would recommend that you begin with a consultation with your own physician. That provider can determine what testing or referral are indicated.
