Best Practices For Coding Breast Procedures

Eliminate audit risk while getting the best reimbursement possible for breast procedures.

 Capture correct and full reimbursement in these financially trying times.

Let coding and reimbursement expert Jan Rasmussen, CPC, ACS-GI, ACS-OB, be your guide in this 60-minute audio conference where she will give you tips on determining what type of biopsy was performed and what terminology to look for in the operative notes.

Here’s a look at what you’ll learn:

• Can you bill for both a biopsy and breast removal at the same operative session? Hint the answer depends on intent of the biopsy...
• Mammosite placement: The surgeon may place a catheter after he does a lumpectomy or biopsy, but can you bill separately for the spacers?
• Correctly bill for sentinel node biopsy and related services. Jan will tell you how. 
• And so much more, including image-guided biopsies, the difference between localization clip placement and preoperative placement of radiological markers, fine needle aspiration and total mastectomies.

Ask a question at the Q&A session following the live event and get advice unique to your situation, directly from our expert speaker.

Who should attend? Surgical coders, physician documenters and office managers.
