Influence of an educational review sheet on chiropractic students' evaluation and management coding performance: A
Objective:
To evaluate whether an educational worksheet would influence the accuracy of simulated evaluation and management (E/M) coding among students in a doctor of chiropractic program.
Methods:
An educational worksheet was developed as well as a test and survey involving simulated patient scenarios. Two groups were analyzed in this project. All members of the intervention group received the educational worksheet and were able to use it while completing their E/M coding test and survey; the control group completed their E/M coding test and survey without the educational worksheet. The E/M coding test and survey were scored for each group; the mean group scores were evaluated, and between group differences were analyzed using a 2-tailed t test.
Results:
The intervention group recorded significantly higher scores (p < .001) on the E/M coding test and survey.
Conclusion:
Doctor of chiropractic students who were provided with an E/M educational worksheet had fewer errors on a simulated E/M coding test and survey.
