Description

AMA Evaluation and Management changes in 2021 left providers confused about how to properly report their visits with patients. There is so much information being provided via email and the internet, but much is contradictory to each other. This webinar will break down the new guidelines in a way that Pain Management providers and their staff can understand and implement needed auditing within their workflow to ensure they are reporting appropriate coding. Detail discussed on the difference between a level 3 4 and 5 office visit (99203/99213, 99204/99214, 99205/99215) Upcoming AMA changes in 2023 are now available as well and will be covered in this session.

Additionally, our speaker will discuss coverage guidelines for top pain management procedures and tips to improve documentation to satisfy these requirements. Self-auditing is the best way to protect your practice from RAC and commercial payer audits. Be sure all your clinical and billing staff join this session to learn all the ins and outs of the new regulations.

Why Should You Attend

Documentation is important in any medical practice, but especially so in the Pain Management space. Historically insurance has audited Pain Management providers more often than any other specialty due to the nature of patient complexity and the high level of care involved.

From the first consultation visit, the patient record must be detailed, clear, and concise for the patient`s treatment plan. With all the changes to Evaluation and Management (E&M) since 2021 and upcoming changes in 2023 providers must adapt and update their templates and records to be sure they stay compliant.

In our session the speaker will cover AMA E&M changes, National Coverage Determinations (NCDs), Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs) and commercial payer policies to give all attendees access to key knowledge to stay up to date on all things Pain Management related.
