Great webinar, but lots of information, difficult stuff if you aren’t used to it.
Very knowledgeable and thank you for the updates
Keep it up.
I like the examples when they are included
Make more interesting, voices were very monotone.
Keep up Good work
She was hard to understand
Good seminar. I liked how she presented the information.
I just got my certification in December so this was my first CEU and update! Despite not having the been in the field working codes regularly, I found this was very well thought out with plenty of examples to make the material more “absorbable”.,
I expected more information about Urology surgery codes since there are more updates than showed on this webinar. Previous years Haugen webinars for CPT updates were more informative unlike this year.
Good information, speaker at times was a little hard to follow.
All related information was beneficial.
Very informative
Great presenter
I really enjoy the question format that haugen follows. I find it very helpful to have those snippets in the webinars
I really dislike when the presenter does an example that is easy and obvious. She only did one example of the vascular codes where only 1 vessel was involved. Would have been so much more informative if the example included more than 1 vessel of the same anatomic site and then maybe throw in another vessel in another anatomic site. Really does us no good when only the easiest example is given. I really didn’t understand how to use those codes when there is more than one vessel worked on in the same site
Great webinar Carol!
Love Carol’s Scottish accent!
The speaker was a bit hard to understand at times
useful training
Useful content and training
Please continue to provide coding examples, these are very helpful!
I like when there are examples of when we would use these codes.
I LOVE her accent however I struggled to understand her at times. I had to stop many times and rewind it. Please dont be offended because i am sure my texas accent is hard for some to understand.
Thank you! Great webinar.
Thank you
