I had never heard of this myself so I looked it up on the Internet, and it is really interesting how they do all that work ahead of time and get things rolling, and then are ready for the patient coming in.

Subject: s/l profee code?

Anybody know the correct way to type this?  It's a billing code dictated in the progress notes, which is done sometimes on one of my accounts.  I've searched the web and found it spelled every way imaginable, the billers and coders board here looks abandoned, and search of boards turned up nothing. 


I'm hoping someone out there in MT Land has the answer.  Thanks!
