Remodel Your Revenue Cycle
Friday, November 3rd | Hyatt Centric Chicago Magnificent Mile
9:00 am - 12:00 pm Central Standard Time
Is your practice as profitable as it could be?
If you aren’t sure, attend this workshop. It’s filled with urgent advice about how to seal up revenue leaks. Ask yourself:
- Are my practice managers providing solid monthly reports—including detailed denial reports?
- Do my Accounts Receivable reports separate patient-owed dollars from insurance debt?
If not, you need this workshop. We’ve seen badly managed practices leak up to six figures from gross income.
KZA education is based on real world consulting. We’ve taken a microscope to practices just like yours—whether you are in private practice, groups, hospital employed or in academia—and found the weak links. We’ll show you how practice profits are lost including:
- Delays in prior authorization and denials after submission
- Worker’s Compensation plans that pay by credit card
- Deceptive AR reports
- Failure to collect patient deductibles and co-pays
- Billing companies that figure “out of sight, out of mind.” (Sadly, they are often right.)
No more fudging! Learn the bookkeeping details that can grow your revenue—ethically and legally. Bring key staff. We guarantee a solid return for the time and money invested.
Confident E/M and Office Coding
Friday, November 3rd | Hyatt Centric Chicago Magnificent Mile
1:00 pm - 5:00 pm Central Standard Time
KZA is excited to bring you the most up-to-date orthopaedic coding and billing guidelines. In 2023, the last thing you want are disruptions in your practice as you get up to speed with the changes to the Evaluation and Management Services for hospital coding.
This workshop can give you a foundation of knowledge to help you quickly embrace the new changes in the hospital E/M codes while reviewing the codes and guidelines for office or other outpatient E/M services. Roll up your sleeves and join us for hands-on coding of orthopaedic visits to master these new changes.
In this course we will take an in-depth look at the new 2023 hospital E/M guidelines and a detailed review of the office or other outpatient E/M guidelines as we present them in the distilled understandable format that is KZA’s signature. Dive into the details of APP billing for incident to, direct, and split/shared billing for Medicare claims, with a focus on applying the CMS criteria. Finally, we will review Radiology billing and how it relates to E/M Data criteria.
As a result of attending this course, participants will be able to:
- Recharge your knowledge of the CPT 2021 E/M requirements for Office/Outpatient services
- Conquer the new CPT 2023 E/M guidelines for Inpatient, Observation, Consultations, and Emergency Department services
- Identify and apply E/M modifiers accurately
- Recognize when it is appropriate to report an E/M service with joint injections and other minor procedures
- Clarify Medicare’s incident-to versus split/shared reporting rules for APPs
