 Chapter specific terminology with anatomy
 Proper coding of conditions, disorders, and their complications
 Review coding sequencing, rules, regulations and conventions
 Stressing the importance of specificity in documentation and codingwith identificationof co-morbidities that trigger HCCs (Hierarchical Condition Categories)

Please have your ICD-10-CM and CPT-4 manuals available for coding exercises.You may submit your specific coding problems and questions to Donna Pendergrass atleast a week ahead to be addressed by Karen during class. Please de-identify/removeany patient protected health information if you send clinic notes.

2025 Coding Preventive Services for Commercial and Medicare Plans
Presented by: Karen Scott, MEd, RHIA, CCS-P, CPC, FAHIMA


The focus for preventive medicine services is to promote and maintain the well-being and health of patients to reduce risk of disease and disability. But preventive care also allows an opportunity for proper reporting of chronic disease burden in your practice population, allowing payers to more adequately estimate future resource use and cost of care for your patients. This can figure heavily in shared savings contracts and MIPS fee schedule adjustment calculations.

Karen will review 
1. What are considered preventive services for Medicare vs commercial plans and the proper codes to report

2. Guidelines for documentation to successfully code/report all required parts of the IPPE/AWV

3. Who may perform various parts of the AWV 

Special topics:

• Services that are bundled in the preventive codes

• Addressing preventive services and an acute problem discovered on the same day

• Immunizations, Injections, and Lab documenting and coding for medical necessity

Date:              Friday May 23, 2025         

 Time:            1:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.                                           

 Location: online only.                  Link will be emailed to registrants one day prior ***** 3 CEU clock hours are available. *****Contact: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
