Do’s and Don’ts of Diabetes Coding: Get the Reimbursement You Deserve
Audio Conference Recording Price: 199.00 -
SUMMARY
Almost 1 in 10 people have or will be diagnosed with diabetes. Most practices and facilities routinely treat and try to get paid for encounters with diabetic patients. Coding for diabetes has never been easy. The disease in and of itself is complex so you can be sure coding for diabetes care is complicated too. Join us for a 60-minute audio program where you and your coding and reimbursement staff will discover:
- The clinical differences between Type I and Type II diabetes - and how to code for both
- Ways to tell if diabetes is the primary or secondary diagnosis - and why it matters
- The differences between adult v. juvenile and controlled v. uncontrolled
- Keys to coding complications of diabetes - there are a slew of them and patients often have more than one
-
PROGRAM BENEFITS

You'll discover guidelines for selecting the correct diagnosis codes, how to assign combination codes to capture services associated with complications and strategies to get physicians to document so there's no need for queries and no billing delays. You'll also find keys to reimbursement for specific, extra services your diabetic patients need.
