HCC Coding for Medical Practices

April 15th, 2021

Register Here

The rules related to HCC coding in physician practices are found in the ICD-10 book itself and in CMS guidance. Long before selecting the correct code, clinicians and coders need to understand the guidelines. This session will describe the guidelines, based on citations from these definitive sources.  Participants will learn how to interpret the “with” guideline in ICD-10 when applying HCC codes, the difference between coding and clinical verification, what parts of the record are “off limits,” and whether they are required to use MEAT (monitor, evaluation, assessment, treatment).

After the session, participants will be able to:

  • Name the source citations for HCC coding
  • Describe the concepts of HCC coding
  • Identify opportunities for improvement in coding

2021 Office Visit Coding Insights

Register here

What do we know now about selecting the level of service for new and established patients that we didn’t know before we started using them? What are we more confident about, and what less so? This webinar will review definitions and rules that are the most confusing, including the complexity of problems, crediting data accurately, risk related to major and minor procedures and documenting time. We’ll review clarifications from the CPT Assistant to date. This webinar is for coders and clinicians who already have a basic grasp of the new guidelines.

After the presentation, participants will be able to:

  • Differentiate between acute and chronic problems
  • Know when to credit an order, the review of test results and independent interpretation
  • Document time for office visits using the new guidelines

“My organization approached Betsy Nicoletti because we had providers failing coding audits.

Betsy’s name is out there in the coding world as a leader in the field and wanted the best for our providers.

Betsy works with the organization to set up webinars for our new provider on boarding training process (which according to them has been most beneficial), as well as subsequent auditing to ensure provider engagement and understanding.

Betsy’s one on one approach has helped the organization overall by the specialized attention to our specific needs.

I appreciate Betsy’s tactful approach with the providers to lessen their concerns as it relates to proper coding. She is up to date on all of the current changes in coding and maintains the communication whenever warranted.

Overall I have found the experience of working with Betsy as positive and educational. I would not hesitate to recommend Betsy to any organization that needs to improve their coding practices and improve success rates from outside auditing.”
