Avoid being at risk and make sure your facility has an effective query process |
Frequent ICD-10-CM/PCS code updates, policy changes, and advances in electronic query systems cause coders to constantly be challenged with redefining where and how they generate queries. Without an efficient and effective query process, facilities risk denials and audits that can cost them significant time and money. The Coder’s Guide to Physician Queries provides strategies for coding departments to improve their query processes and train coders on developing and executing physician queries. Using these tools, new and established coders can revise their practices and train staff to meet the challenges of integrating ICD-10-CM/PCS codes into queries, government payer initiatives, auditor denials, and electronic advances. This resource provides readers with sample templates and queries as well as: A comprehensive review of queries, including best practices for coders in an evolving regulatory environment An overview of healthcare reimbursement initiatives pertinent to coder query practices in the current regulatory environment A start-to-finish guide on the entire query process |
Save time and money with an effective query process! |
