Description
Join us for Wound Care Coding: A Patient’s Journey Through Care & Coding, an informative and practical webinar designed for healthcare professionals involved in wound care management, coding, and documentation. This session will provide a concise yet comprehensive overview of wound care types, essential documentation practices, commonly used CPT codes, and the critical relationship between diabetes and chronic wounds.
We will also explore medical necessity and billing considerations for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), including key coding rules and compliance insights. Through the lens of a patient case study, we’ll follow the complete clinical journey, from initial wound presentation to full healing, integrating clinical, administrative, and reimbursement perspectives.
Objectives:
- Recognize key documentation requirements for wound care services to support medical necessity and proper coding
- Recognize the most common CPT codes used in wound care and how to apply them accurately
- Discuss the impact of diabetes on wound healing and the importance of tailored care for diabetic patients
- Define medical necessity criteria for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) and understand when it is indicated
- Apply HBOT coding rules and billing practices to ensure compliance and optimize reimbursement
- Follow a patient case study from wound onset to resolution, integrating clinical decisions, documentation, and billing processes throughout the care continuum
