I frequently look through patient EMR's to find diagnoses and medications. The encounters titled "Office Visits" always have a writeup done by the physician that entails the major reason for the encounter, the patient's diagnoses, and other information. The encounters titled "OP Visits" give no information other than the name of the physician and the patient's demographics. What determines whether an encounter is to be labeled as one or the other?
