I know we're facing big changes in E/M for 2009 and my hospital's supply of books has not come in.

Has anyone seen the changes anywhere online? I can only find seminar advertisements and sites that require subscriptions.

Any links are appreciated.
 
Mostly pediatrics

Belinda,
The biggest changes are with Newborn care, Pediatric Critical Care - including transport (new codes, expanded age ranges, but basically the same guidelines as before), and Prolonged service (inpatient is now for unit/floor time).

There's an AAPC audio conference TODAY at 1pm EST on the 2009 CPT changes.
