DecisionHealth announces new anesthesia, orthopedic, and pain management virtual coding summits


With all the changes afoot right now, practices are looking to us to deliver the targeted, accurate coding guidance and support to help them succeed right from the start in 2021.

With upcoming changes to E/M office visit rules and diagnosis code additions impacting almost every chapter of ICD-10-CM, practices need the latest training to help them maximize coding efficiencies and ensure compliance. To help fulfill that need, DecisionHealth is excited to announce three new virtual coding summits for anesthesia, orthopedics, and pain management specialty practices.

“With all the changes afoot right now, practices are looking to us to deliver the targeted, accurate coding guidance and support to help them succeed right from the start in 2021,” says Laura Evans, Senior Content Specialist at DecisionHealth. “It’s no wonder that we’re seeing an increased interest in our upcoming virtual coding summits with an enhanced experience tailored to answering attendees’ specific questions and concerns.”

It begins with our Anesthesia: Virtual Coding Summit, occurring November 4–6. Attendees will receive training on the latest post-op block codes and accurate coding for procedure-specific sessions such as interventional radiology, spine, and lower joints. We also review the most perplexing billing, coding, and compliance issues related to anesthesia that will impact specialty practices in 2021.

The following week, November 10–12, we focus on reporting orthopedic surgical procedures from toe to shoulder, including anatomy, bundling rules, and documentation requirements for 2021. As part of our Orthopedics: Virtual Coding Summit, our expert speakers review how E/M office visits will be impacted by these coding changes, how to spot risk areas for noncompliant coding of orthopedic services, and more.

Finally, our Pain Management: Virtual Coding Summit, occurring November 17–19, provides the need-to-know information on Medicare’s coverage of telehealth services, new rules and fees in the 2021 Final Physician Fee Schedule, and revised codes in the 2021 CPT® manual.
