Medicare and third-party payor policy and coding changes make it imperative that surgeons and their coding staff have accurate and up-to-date information to protect reimbursements and optimize efficiency. The next in-person ACS/KZA General Surgery Coding Course, August 16-17 at the Loews Vanderbilt Hotel, can help.
ACS members and their staff receive a registration discount, so register today! The Coding Course includes two all-day sessions and up to 6.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for each day.
Participants will learn how to properly apply elements of medical decision-making when selecting levels of evaluation and management (E/M) codes; correctly use E/M modifiers; identify key issues in nonphysician practitioner and critical care billing; and accurately code and document common office procedures.
Attendees will learn how to select correct codes for common general surgery procedures; recognize the impact of modifiers on global periods and reimbursement; identify areas for improvement in surgical documentation; and manage precertification and preauthorization.
