Anesthesiology and Pain Management Coding
It is imperative for an anesthesiology and pain management coder to use the correct CPT codes, modifiers, and times to ensure that the physician is reimbursed for every procedure he performs in a session. The coder should code the procedures correctly and do the research on guidelines, CCI edits, and correct documentation before releasing the claim. The difference between a payable claim and a denied claim can be as simple as an incorrect modifier or diagnosis.
