Final answer:

An admission note documented by the attending physician cannot replace a dictated history and physical examination.

Step-by-step explanation:

False

An admission note documented by the attending physician cannot replace a dictated history and physical examination.

The admission note typically focuses on the patient's current symptoms, medical history, and initial assessment and plan. However, it does not provide the same level of detail and comprehensive assessment as a history and physical examination.
