CODING the BIG FOUR:
Diabetes, HTN, CKD, and Obesity
3 hour program

Presented by: Karen Scott, MEd, RHIA, CCS-P, CPC, FAHIMA

The prevalence of these four diseases in our part of the country, and their interactions merit special attention for documentation and coding to demonstrate a realistic picture of the health of so many of our patients. These four diseases have far-reaching effects not only in the care of our patients, but in the quality performance and cost valuations in commercial and government payer contracts.

This session will discuss:

• Proper use of combination codes for reporting these interactive issues, which drive cost expectations by the payers
• Proper reporting of CPTII codes that can show treatment outcomes for quality
• Proper reporting of ICD + CPTII for obesity diagnoses and the effects of chronic disease on BMI level when choosing an obesity vs morbid obesity diagnosis and reporting a diagnosis without a BMI
• Specific questions regarding the number of combo codes you can report, reporting combo codes when all of these are present, how to report CPTII codes

Date:            July 22, 2022                                                                       

Time:           9:00 to 12:00                        

Location:     Online only. Link will be emailed to registrants one day prior to event.

3 hour CEU will be available for certified coding or mgt

**This series of courses is open only to participating MetroCare Physicians members and their staff.

A deep dive into E&M Coding beyond just outpatient coding. Our focus last was on outpatient coding, but of course there is so much more. This  is an intensive review evaluation and management coding in all of its aspects that will also include the outpatient changes for this year. Please have your coding manuals prepared to participate in some exercises.
