Gain wound care coding and documentation strategies to achieve compliance and avoid denials
The last several years have brought major changes to the guidelines and CPT® codes pertaining to wound debridement and active wound care. As a result, wound care codes now require more documentation than ever before. Wound care coding has become increasingly complex, particularly when dealing with active wound care. Coding and billing staff must be on top of the latest changes to wound care coding to successfully code for these services.
Join coding expert Margie Scalley Vaught during this 60-minute training to:
- Avoid denials by understanding the difference between wound debridement, open fracture debridement and active wound care coding
- Ensure proper payment by knowing what surgical debridement documentation is now required for all three debridement CPT® code ranges
- Increase coding compliance by distinguishing the difference between non-selective wound care codes, selective wound care codes and application of wound vacs
- Prevent reimbursement issues by understanding the NCCI and CPT® bundling policies as well as payer/carrier policies and interpretation
- Code correctly when skin grafting/replacement is involved
- Test your knowledge with examples/scenarios
