Description
Join us for Pulmonology Critical Care Coding: A Patient’s Journey! Coding for physician services in pulmonology and critical care can be challenging, especially when other coding guidelines, such as the teaching or split/share guidelines, must also be considered. Join us for this informative webinar as we follow a patient’s progress from the ED to the critical care unit and beyond. The patient’s E/M services and procedures will be coded based on different scenarios of the patient’s care presented along a timeline.
Objectives:
- Define critical care
- Identify services that are bundled into critical care codes
- Interpret and apply the split/share concept for critical care
- Interpret and apply the teaching physician rules
- Recognize how to bill bedside procedures in the ICU
- Select the appropriate E/M codes for different providers furnishing care to the same patient
