2017 CODING FOR ORTHOPAEDICS Presented by: Karen Scott, MEd, RHIA, CCS-P, CPC, FAHIMA

 2017 Coding for Orthopaedics

Presented by:

Karen Scott, MEd, RHIA, CCS-P, CPC, FAHIMA

This class will review the coding processes, rules, sequencing guidelines, and regulations relating to the musculoskeletal system.   Fracture codes as well as codes for disorders, anomalies, conditions and injuries will be covered. 

In the new patient care models, the requirements to “tell the whole story” with appropriately reporting risk factors through patient co-morbidities is an essential part of relating value with the appropriate level of care for the patient’s condition.  Join us to ensure documentation and coding pieces come together to appropriately relate the service rendered and report performance.

A few topics to be discussed are:

• Coding external causes
• Coding treatment after a prior surgical loss
• Bundled payments
• Coding E/M and procedures on the same day
• Fractures: delayed healing, nonunion, malunion, sequela
