Overview:

There are a lot of conferences that focus on orthopedic surgery coding, but surprisingly, many general orthopedic surgeons receive as much in reimbursements of office services as they do in surgeries. This conference will review the common services provided in the orthopedic office, and the coding that represents these services.

You Will Learn:

• Is it better to bill for closed treatment of a fracture or visits?
• Insurance issues related to some orthopedic patients
• The global periods for surgery
• Common modifiers used in office coding
• Billing for office visits and procedures on the same day

CEU approved for all CPCs, CPC-Hs, CPC-Ps and the following specialties: CASCC, CPMA, and COSC.
