Wound Care Coding: 2018 Guideline & Coding Updates

On-Demand Recording

Summary

Wound care coding and billing often carries challenges compared to other specialties, as wound size, depth, and severity must be properly documented to report the most accurate codes. With the addition of new ICD-10-CM code combinations for reporting non-pressure ulcer diagnoses in 2018, coders' jobs have become even more difficult.

Coding expert, Dr. Dreama Sloan-Kelly, guides you through the best practices for wound care documentation, coding and billing, as well as implications of both the Targeted Probe and Educate program and the 2018 OPPS updates on coding and reimbursement for clinics.
