This interactive 1-day training session is intended for qualified healthcare practitioners, medical billers, medical coders, auditors, office managers and IT professionals involved with authoring clinical documentation, generating E&M progress notes, reporting Evaluation and Management (E&M) service claims, and auditing clinical documentation related to E&M services.

 

The primary focus of the session will emphasize documentation guidelines set forth by CMS for reporting Evaluation and Management services (E&M), as defined by CPT. The drastic changes that took effect January 2021 will be a central focus of the training. The curriculum will provide attendees with a strong grasp of Evaluation and Management services with proper emphasis placed on coding documentation and auditing principles. The curriculum has been designed to assist in development and mastery of the necessary skill set to successfully report and review documentation related to Evaluation and Management (E&M) services. During the training, we will discuss the variances between outpatient and inpatient E&M services, the differences between problem-oriented and preventive services (e.g., IPPE, AWV and smoking cessation, etc.), new versus established patient definitions, the new terms introduced in 2021 CPT related to medical decision making and time and how to properly select the various ‘levels’ of E&M service. The conclusion of the program will focus on a minimum of 2 case studies (depending on allotted time) in an effort to accurately audit E&M cases in 2021 and beyond.
