Durham, NC (PRWEB) September 05, 2017 -- AudioEducator, a division of audio conference and corporate education leader ProEdTech, will host the live webinar “Current Coding Trends in Arthroscopy of the Hip, Knee, Ankle, Shoulder, and Wrist” with industry veteran Lynn M.

This session will help medical staff understand Medicare and commercial insurance guidelines and policies for arthroscopy codes, minimizing insurance denials for expensive arthroscopic procedures.
There have not been many CPT code changes to the arthroscopy codes in recent years, but the Medicare and commercial insurance guidelines and policies that relate to arthroscopic procedures are ever-changing, due to the large amount of money insurance pays out for them. It can be very difficult to keep up with these policies.

Anderanin, CPC, CPMA, CPC-I, CPPM, COSC, will bring practices up to date with the most current coding trends for arthroscopy of the hip, knee, ankle, shoulder and wrist. Attendees will learn the latest information on coding and reimbursement for arthroscopic procedures that can help them to maximize their reimbursement from insurance providers. Lynn will also provide suggestions on dealing with pre-authorizations and coding for different areas of the body.
The session will help orthopedic surgeons, physician assistants, office managers, coders, billers and surgery authorization specialists:
