Free AAMA Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) Practice Question
A clinic progress note omits subjective patient statements and only includes objective observations and treatment details to maintain a high level of clinical objectivity.
The given statement is false because a clinic progress note typically includes subjective information such as the patient's statements about their symptoms or concerns, as well as objective findings from the healthcare provider's examination, assessment, and plan for treatment. Excluding subjective information would deprive the clinician of valuable context regarding the patient's condition.
