Wiki 2011 Codes

[armymomryan]

I work for a coding and billing company, we have just obtained a new account, OB/GYN. I am getting a pretty good handle on it but was wondering about any new code changes coming in 2011. I normally work cardiology and have gotten the new codes for that. Any help with OB/GYN changes comiong would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks - Denise

The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologist (ACOG) is a great resource for OB/GYN coding here is the link for the new 2011 ICD-9 codes that relate to OB/GYN. The 2011 CPT changes is not on their website yet.
