Coding: Education on coding and documentation in medical training, whether medical school or during clinical rotations, is typically very limited. In many circumstances, physicians and APPs learn these skills on the job. Unfortunately, many tenured providers are not coding and documenting correctly leading to the propagation of incorrect knowledge to new, onboarding providers.
