EHR Integration in NH
Urgent Care clinics in New Hampshire heavily utilize athenahealth, advancedmd, practicefusion with SMART on FHIR write-back. MedSynthea integrates with all three for zero manual re-entry.
Post-2021 E&M guideline changes require urgent care coding to be based on Medical Decision Making (MDM) complexity rather than visit time, impacting how each presenting complaint maps to level 3 (99213) vs level 4 (99214) codes. MedSynthea's CODE agent analyzes presenting complaint complexity, number of problems addressed, and data reviewed to select the defensible E&M level, and applies POS 20 (urgent care) vs POS 11 (office) automatically based on rendering facility type.
