Then I gotta figure out an overall plan, how to execute that plan, what to do if that plan fails, write my note, etc etc etc. known patient for a quick f/u on one or two issues? That still might include chart review, specialist notes, labs, etc etc etc. you have the sniffles and you’re fine and just need a note? 5 minutes. All depends.
