Do You Have Time to Talk About E&M: Risk Associated with Time-based E&M Services
Speaker: Grant Huang, CPC, CPMA
OnDemand Webinar Training
In this session, attendees will learn about the compliance risks posed
by time-based E/M services, including the usage of time to support E/M code
levels as well as prolonged service add-on codes to be used with
office/outpatient E/M codes.
We will review the 2021 E/M guidelines and the
landmark changes they made to the use of time to support E/M codes and examine
compliance pitfalls new and old that are associated with time-based coding.
We
will also explore the new changes to the prolonged service add-on codes to be
used in the office/outpatient setting, which are heavily scrutinized and rely
almost exclusively on accurate documentation of time by the billing provider.
