Looking for the 90760-90779 injection & infusion codes? Here’s where they are in CPT 2009.

Let’s face it. For many specialties, CPT 2009 is a bit ho-hum. But for pulmonology coders, this year’s full of changes affecting outpatient and inpatient E/M, prolonged services, critical care, and injection and infusion claims. And we’ve got just the expert to help you understand those changes. If you’ve never heard Kim Huey explain E/M coding for seriously ill patients, you’re missing out on an eye-opening educational experience. In just 60 minutes, she’ll tell you all the CPT changes you need to know for 2009, and make you a sharper E/M coder besides.
