Total Credits: 1 including 1 Promotion, Business, Clinical Documentation
Chiropractors often face claim denials when billing an Evaluation and Management (E/M) code on the same day as a chiropractic manipulative treatment (CMT). This fast-paced webinar will unpack when these services can be billed together—legitimately and defensibly—based on clinical necessity, documentation standards, and payer guidelines. Learn how to distinguish routine care from re-evaluations and set your records up for success.
By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:
Identify clinical scenarios that support separately reportable E/M services during chiropractic care.
Apply proper documentation techniques to demonstrate that an E/M service is “significant and separately identifiable” from chiropractic manipulative treatments.
Select appropriate diagnosis codes and modifiers to improve defensibility and reduce denials for re-evaluation claims.
Additional Note: This program offers 1 hour DC CE credit in the category of Promotion, Business, Clinical Documentation. A maximum of 3 hours CE per year may be obtained in this category.
