Preventive medicine and Medicare wellness visits with an E/M | Webinar

Preventive medicine and Medicare wellness visits with a problem oriented visit
Recorded September 16th, 2021

When can you bill a problem visit and a CPT preventive service or a Medicare wellness visit at the same encounter? The new E/M guidelines allow us to select an office visit code based on time or MDM. The CPT book doesn’t provide much guidance about reporting and documenting these visits. This webinar will describe the requirements of each type of service and the documentation that supports the code. It will provide practical guidance on when to report one or both services.

After the session, 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
