E/M Coding and Documentation Guidelines:
New 2021 rules for the diagnostic/therapeutic management of
outpatient visits furnished by healthcare providers must be properly
followed to avoid denials. Because the evaluation and management
(E/M) services codes are vulnerable to abuse, it is important for
providers, clinical, and practice staff involved in diagnostic and
procedural coding understand the newest information implemented
this year.
Learn about the multiple sets of coding rules and documentation
guidelines relevant to proper E/M code selection. The AMA & CMS
guidelines for E/M code selection, and various payor policies, coverage
determinations and requirements should all be considered.
The instructor will cover distinctions regarding new vs. established
patient guidelines and coding E/M services based on time vs
Medical Decision Making (MDM).
Find out what non-face to-face work to include in total time and gain details on the time ranges. Learn when and how to use the new CPT prolonged services code(s) and outpatient visit codes without an add-on prolonged care code based on time. Receive coding tips and strategies for successful documentation and claims submissions.
