The
Board of Medical Specialty Coding present:
Core
Coding Competencies in Home Care Coding:
The fundamentals
Audio Conference • Wednesday, October
31, 2007 • 1:00- 2:30 p.m. ET
The PPS changes
are effective January 1, 2008 – are you ready?
As PPS changes are looming, you must be sure that you have
mastered core coding competencies and skills to ensure accurate
reimbursement. Beware of those who haven’t mastered these
competencies, as they will put your agency at risk of altering
outcomes and possibly losing money.
Attend this special audio presentation led by top home care
coding authority Lisa Selman-Holman, and learn how to master
core coding competencies. She will help you:
- Prioritize diagnoses based on clinical assessment and
planned interventions
- Apply sequencing rules as required by the Official Coding
guidelines
- Reduce the risk of an audit
- Bill Abnormality of Gait (and all other V codes) correctly
- Determine the impact of the PPS changes and how they will
impact the Case Mix
You know that if all the diagnoses aren’t coded, your
agency can miss out on reimbursement dollars that you are legally
due – don’t let this happen to you!
Lisa will specifically cover:
- An overview of Coding Guidelines/conventions – these
are rules that you need to know!
- Co-Morbidities
- Coding signs and symptoms
- Diabetes coding – stop letting
manifestations cause you trouble!
