Review the project attributes and discuss two of them
in detail.
Here is the 2 project attributes
1.A project has an established objective. Projects are
results oriented. Deliverables must be produced, or specific
services must be provided.
2. A project has a defined life span with a beginning, middle, and
an end. The work required in a project should be performed within a
specific time period. For instance, a project to establish a
telecommunications network may be scheduled to start on May 1 and
completed 6 months later on October 31. At this point, the project
comes to an end and the completed project is turned over, either to
an external client or customer, or to an internal operating group
for its operation or use.
the 2 project attributes that I provide it i need to discuss more them in detail.

1.) Dr. Johnson (an internist) saw Ms. Bane. Dr. Johnson suspected a gynecological problem. Dr. Johnson called Dr. Thomas (an OB/GYN) and asked her to evaluate Ms. Bane. There was no written request sent to Dr. Thomas by Dr. Johnson. However, based on Dr. Johnson’s verbal request (which was documented by Dr. Thomas and Dr. Johnson in each of their medical records), Dr. Thomas saw Ms. Bane in the office. She took Ms. Bane’s history and performed an examination. She then wrote Dr. Johnson and provided him with her opinion regarding Ms. Bane, recommended a course of treatment (which was filed in Ms. Bane’s medical record) and thanked him for the referral. Should Dr. Thomas’s services in the office be coded as an office visit (99201-99215) or an office consultation (99241-99245)?
Same as above except Dr. Thomas also wrote a prescription for Ms. Bane and made a follow-up appointment for Ms. Bane to see her again in three days. Should Dr. Thomas’s initial services (not the follow-up visit) be coded as an office visit (99201-99215) or an office consultation (99241-99245)? Same as above. At the conclusion of the follow-up visit, Dr. Thomas wrote Dr. Johnson again providing him with an update on her opinion regarding Ms. Bane. Should Dr. Thomas’s follow-up services be coded as an office visit (99211-99215) or an office consultation (99241-99245)?
Same as above except a week later Dr. Johnson saw Ms. Bane again. He was concerned that her condition had not cleared up so he called Dr. Thomas and asked her to reevaluate Mrs. Bane and provide an updated opinion. Dr. Thomas documented Dr. Johnson’s verbal request and saw Ms. Bane in the office. She took Ms. Bane’s history and performed and examination. She then wrote Dr. Johnson and provided him with her updated opinion regarding Ms. Bane and recommended a revised course of treatment. Should Dr. Thomas’s services in the office be coded as an office visit (99201-99215) or an office consultation (99241-99425)?

Question #: 15
BACKGROUND: Seizure is a common complication after stroke (termed
"post-stroke seizure," PSS). Although many studies have assessed
outcomes and risk factors of PSS, no reliable predictors are
currently available to determine PSS recurrence. We compared
baseline clinical characteristics and post- stroke treatment
regimens between recurrent and non-recurrent PSS patients to
identify factors predictive of recurrence.
METHODS: Consecutive PSS patients admitted to our stroke center
between January 2011 and July 2013 were monitored until February
2014 (median 357 days; IQR, 160-552) and retrospectively evaluated
for baseline clinical characteristics and PSS recurrence.
Cumulative recurrence rates at 90, 180, and 360 days post-stroke
were estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Independent predictors of
recurrent PSS were identified by Cox proportional-hazards
analysis.
RESULTS: A total of 104 patients (71 men; mean age, 72.1 ±11.2
years) were analyzed. PSS recurred in 31 patients (30%) during the
follow-up. Factors significantly associated with PSS recurrence by
log-rank analysis included previous PSS, valproic acid (VPA)
monotherapy, polytherapy with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), frontal
cortical lesion, and higher modified Rankin Scale score at
discharge (all p <0.05). Independent predictors of recurrent PSS
were age <74 years (HR 2.38, 95% CI 1.02-5.90), VPA monotherapy
(HR 3.86, 95% CI 1.30-12.62), and convulsions on admission (HR
3.87, 95% CI 1.35-12.76). CONCLUSIONS: Approximately one-third of
PSS patients experienced seizure recurrence within one year. The
predictors of recurrent PSS were younger age, presence of
convulsions and VPA monotherapy. Our findings should be interpreted
cautiously in countries where monotherapy with second-generation
AEDs has been approved because this study was conducted while
second-generation AEDs had not been officially approved for
monotherapy in Japan.
