Summary
Connecticut Medicaid has issued new documentation guidelines for evaluation and management (E/M) services when performed by students in the presence of teaching physicians. The policy follows CMS Medicare requirements and does not change existing resident documentation requirements from PB 2016-82.
Action Required
Immediately: Academic medical centers and teaching practices must review CMS MLN MM10412 documentation requirements for student-performed E/M services. Update EMR templates and billing workflows to ensure proper documentation when students participate in patient care under teaching physician supervision. Train billing staff on distinction between student and resident documentation requirements.
