Drug administration is one of the most commonly performed procedures in outpatient departments, but many coders, billers, and clinicians still have unresolved questions about following the hierarchy, reporting difficult scenarios, or including the appropriate details in documentation. Train your entire team on proper injection and infusion coding in JustCoding’s virtual workshop!
Here's a look at the agenda: - Part 1: Interactive 25-question quiz on drug administration concepts with real-time scoring and feedback. Participants can benchmark their results against the answers of their peers throughout the quiz.
- Part 2: In-depth discussion of drug administration concepts following the facility CPT coding hierarchy, including topics such as:
- When to report hydration
- What to do when stop times are missing
- How to report concurrent and subsequent infusions
- How to report multiple infusions of the same substance
- How time counting impacts reporting injections, infusions, and additional hours of infusion
- Reporting chemotherapy vs. non-chemotherapy administrations
- Part 3: Review of participant- and speaker-generated real-life clinical coding scenarios to describe and explain simple, intermediate, and complex cases. Participants will also receive auditing and monitoring tips.
A live Q&A session will follow each of the three segments, with short breaks provided after each Q&A. |
