Course Overview

The AMA is once again turning its attention to the E/M section of CPT with massive changes to take effect January 1, 2023.  The remaining E/M categories that were not changed in 2021 are now being revised to match the 2021 changes to the E/M Office/Other Outpatient services.  Hospital, Consultation, Nursing Facility, Home Services, and Prolonged Services codes will all be updated.  There will be one MDM Table with additional elements to capture the new categories added.

CHCS has created this 4-hour CEU-Approved workshop to educate coders, billers, physicians/other providers, auditors, and any health care professional that needs to understand E/M leveling.  This is not a boring lecture with someone talking at you for four hours.  It is an interactive workshop including exercises and games to ensure a deeper understanding of the changes.  Learn from health care professionals with decades of experience to prepare for the coming changes.  Don’t be caught unprepared.
