RHRC: ED Coding, Billing & Reimbursement for Critical Access Hospitals

Sponsor: Care Learning

Format: Webinar

Description: A major reason for your Critical Access Hospital is to provide virtually all levels and types of emergency services. As such, special requirements involving coverage and use of non-physician personnel are allowed. While your payment is not directly related to coding and billing, you must still follow standard guidelines when coding and billing for emergency and urgent care conditions. Is your hospital receiving the appropriate reimbursement for all the services that are provided in the emergency department? Good question... but would the answers be frightening. The procedures that are performed in the emergency room and sufficiently documented should be coded and billed, but this is where a dilemma still exists. Are your coders not clear at times what should be and should not be coded? Injections and infusions, for example, tend to be the most frequently performed procedures, but are not coded or coded incorrectly.
