MDM or Time? Compliance for E/M Coding in 2024

Healthcare providers have been accustomed to the old 1995 and 1997 evaluation and management (E/M) guidelines for over 25 years. The recent overhaul of these E/M guidelines in 2021, and again in 2023, necessitates ongoing education to achieve mastery. This webinar aims to furnish the essential information needed to meet today’s standards of E/M coding and documentation practices, particularly in office and other outpatient settings.

Why Should You Attend?

Office visits are common to almost every provider in almost every specialty. In this webinar, you will gain insights into not only the new overhaul of E/M guidelines in the office and other outpatient settings, but also to the recent scrutiny of these code sets by payors.

Attendees will be able to identify levels of service based on the new definitions and structure of selecting codes using medical decision-making (MDM). You will better understand straightforward, low, moderate, and high levels of MDM.

Attendees will also learn how to improve documentation to satisfy the new guidelines and support the E/M code selected for either MDM or time.
