A note over on an MGMA mailing list reminded me that I haven't done any good benchmarks in a while, so why not quickly publish our latest pediatric E&M distribution results. Here's a comparison of PCC's pediatric E&M distribution, 2007 vs. 2003, when we started pushing our clients on this issue...
For those scoring at home, the data:
| 2003 | 2007 | |
| 99212 | 9.3% | 6.4% |
| 99213 | 81.0% | 77.2% |
| 99214 | 8.9% | 15.1% |
| 99215 | 0.9% | 1.2% |
That's a good increase in 214s and even 215s. I'm proud of that!
