EP and Ablation: 2022 Coding & Documentation Update

Learn about new coding guidelines and other key changes

The ongoing struggle with coding for electrophysiology (EP) and ablation procedures has taken a turn for the worse in 2022, thanks to new bundled CPT^® codes and other changes to coding guidelines. It’s time to take a timeout and join us for this exclusive MedLearn Publishing webcast!

From cardiology revenue cycle expert Catherine Huyghe, you’ll get crucial guidance and insights to ensure that you’re coding and billing compliantly — and capturing all legitimate revenue for services. Besides a clearer understanding of must-know 2022 changes, you’ll learn about EP and ablation procedures and the corresponding anatomy, plus documentation best practices, report structure, CCI language and edits. Cathy will also assist with the challenges of identifying additional mechanisms and varying physician protocols. The icing on the cake: case examples from actual patient encounters — bringing her instruction to life.
