Medicare’s teaching physician guidelines are important rules for coding and billing purposes when services are provided to patients, even in part, by a resident, intern or fellow in a teaching environment.
Join us as we break down how these rules are important for coders, billers, and, of course, provider reimbursement, and why documentation is key.
Our expert presenter will help you understand any recent updates in these guidelines and how to stay compliant while coding with confidence for both evaluation and management services and procedures furnished in teaching settings.
Objectives:
- Identify any key updates to the teaching physician rules in 2026
- Recognize and apply the rules regarding the level of participation of a teaching physician for procedures and E&M services, including via telehealth
- Demonstrate application of both the general teaching physician guidelines and those under the primary care exception
