Overview:

Critical Care E/M codes are preceded by one of the longest note sections in the CPT manual. Just what it is, the type of patient for which it is billed, what level of care must be provided, whether location matters—CPT covers it all. Some of the rules are straightforward; some aren’t. On top of this, Medicare has rules for Critical Care billing that at times differ greatly from those of CPT. This webinar will provide foundational knowledge in Critical Care billing, followed by a discussion centered on several specific situations in which the Critical Care billing rules are the most complex, comparing CPT’s rules to those of Medicare.

You Will Learn:

  • When Critical Care should be billed in addition to vs. instead of another E/M visit code
  • How Critical Care is billed in the academic setting
  • When Critical Care can be billed within a global period
  • How Critical Care by NPPs is billed
  • How Critical Care is billed by multiple providers from the same specialty
