  • A few new telehealth services have been adding, but you won't be reporting them with a CPT code.  Learn what they are and how to provider them.
  • Changes to RVUs for obstetric services will have practices smiling.
  • On the other hand, your PC charges for multiple ultrasounds will be disappointing.
  • Finally, the requirements Medicare wants to see on the Health Risk Assessment form you use during an annual wellness visit - not as much work as you may have anticipated, and you are going to get paid more for doing it.
  • Electronic prescribing is here to stay - and so are payment adjustments for those who are eligible, but have not yet made the transition.

CPT:

  • Initial observation codes are changing time zones.  Learn how to use this new benefit and why the change was necessary.
  • Think you know who to decide if a patient is new or established to your practice? Listen in to find out why what you thought may no longer be applicable.
  • Semantics for prolonged services and the difference between professional and clinical staff may alter some of your coding. Find out what all the fuss was about.
