With more than 500 CPT code changes likely for the year 2010, it’s of prime importance that you keep yourself updated with what’s new, what’s been revised and what’s been deleted to keep your reimbursements intact.
Without doubt, the coming year, like this year, will witness hundreds of code text and guideline changes as well. To keep pace with them all, there are one-stop websites where you head to, to provide you with understanding of each of the CPT code changes so that you don’t falter in your coding. Doing a search there will help you get familiar with every new, revised or deleted code, text and guideline change. Infact, every specific CPT change including those affecting cardiology, general surgery, pain management, pulmonary medicine, etc – will all be at your disposal here.
When you sign up for such a website, you’ll get access to all the CPT code changes in an easy to read format, so that you don’t have to flip through the many pages of the big CPT book anymore.
Normally, such websites also provide you with a free trial where you can have access to Free Cpt Codes.
Since we are talking about CPT codes changes, you’ll also do well to know about ways to submit a suggestion for changes to CPT. Here’s how:
Suggestions of physicians, state medical associations and those who deal with health care information on a daily basis are the only way to guarantee that CPT reflects current practice. The AMA welcomes correspondence, inquiries and suggestions relating to old and new procedures. There are coding change request forms which are required to initiate a review of a proposed coding change by the CPT Advisory Committee. These forms play an important role in maintaining and increasing the efficiency of the CPT process.
