Coding Guide – Preventive Medicine Services

This is the resource guide from CodingIntel’s one hour course on preventive medicine.

Coding for preventive medicine services should be easy, but it’s not.  It’s complicated by frequency issues, Medicare rules and the always difficult issue of when to bill a problem oriented E/M service on the same day.

You can find detailed information about Medicare HCPCS screening and counseling codes, including depression, obesity and alcohol use in our Screening Codes Guide.
