Each and every year, the AMA CPT Editorial Panel spends countless hours reviewing requests for new CPT codes from medical societies, insurance companies, and medical device manufacturers. CMS Medicare also requests code changes and or RVU changes from the AMA RUC (Relative Unit Committee) as the complexity of procedures changes. The changes in the AMA CPT manual are implemented on January 1st of every year and 2024 is no different. With approximately 500 changes, anyone working with assigning CPT codes needs to be aware of the changes. In this session we will review the changes and discuss the reasoning behind some of them for a better understanding of how to apply them. Submitting invalid codes to any insurance company after January 1st can not only delay reimbursement but it can also be considered as errors creating denied claims in which have to be corrected and resubmitted in a timely filing period identified by each insurance company separately. To avoid expanding the chance of not receiving any reimbursement due to errors, submitting clean, correct, claims is critical in this field. The only way to do that is know the changes and apply them correctly.
Learning Objective:
- Understand code additions to CPT for procedures being performed by the providers in the practice
- Learn what can be expected as reimbursement for the new procedures and services
- Other changes in CPT to assist in coding appropriately
- Category III codes that were not in CPT 2023 but were valid on July 1, 2024
- Learn the new ways in which the COVID-19 vaccine is to be reported
- Discuss any new modifiers that are being implemented
- Review the 2024 CMS Proposed Physicians Fee Schedule to prepare for the final rule
