Preventive Medicine, Wellness Visits and Problem-Oriented Visits
Recorded: April 18th, 2024
Two for the price of one? Or, double-billing? There are varying opinions about when the documentation supports adding a problem-oriented visit to a CPT preventive service or a Medicare wellness visit. This webinar provides a framework for determining if documentation shows the additional work that was done. We’ll review the examples from the CPT Assistant for guidance (including using time) and discuss what to do about copy/paste.
After the presentation participants will be able to:
- Describe the requirements for each type of service
- Separate the documentation that supports a problem visit versus
preventive/wellness - Identify documentation that relates to treating an acute or chronic problem
