OVERVIEW

The world of Evaluation and Management (E&M) documentation has drastically changed—yet many physicians are still stuck using outdated, time-consuming methods. If you’re still documenting the way you have for years and including  "comprehensive" histories and exams when only a focused note is needed, you could be wasting valuable time and risking payer audits.

It’s time to rethink what makes a note good. This webinar will show you how to create clear, compliant, and efficient defensible documentation. Learn how to write shorter, smarter notes that meet audit standards and improve workflow. Make sure you are protecting your revenue by providing proper documentation that supports accurate E&M coding—and ultimately prevents or gets denials overturned. 

Speaker: Jill Young, CEMC, CPC, CEDC, CIMC
