I'm starting to hear a little buzz that EP was hit with several changes this year. Has anyone else heard this?
 
I have heard the same thing. Jim Collins is have a webinar next month with the updates. I can send you the e-mail about it if you send me your e-mail address.
 
If you have the 2012 CPT book, you can look at the changes in there. The biggest area was with pacemakers/ICD's. Alot of revised text and new codes.

Speaking about Jim Collins Webinar just listened to it Tuesday and also going to have another one Friday. There are changes coming our way. Pacemaker and Defibrillator codes --- 24 codes impacted- 1 code deleted 9 new codes added 14 existing codes marked with a change symbol. Fluoroscopy code 71090 deleted!--S&I codes 75722 and 75724 replaced. Lordy.

EP changes

I received this notice from MedLearn.com:

Are you prepared for the next big wave of changes to cardiology codes? Ready or not, a major rewrite will take effect on January 1, and the focus for 2012 is coding for procedures involving pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs).

I have not seen any specifics yet on what is changing.
