  • Elusive and seemingly unattainable, the crux of medical record coding essentially can be distilled into these apparently irreconcilable elements—accuracy, speed and knowledge.

    Overlay on this current situation the incessant need to be aware of constant updates, inevitable staffing changes, the apparent searching for some 74,000 codes and the ensuing financial impact your organization undoubtedly experiences, then you know the challenges you and your colleagues face daily.
    Keenly aware of these obstacles, the producers of ICD10monitor, have invited the vice president of iCoreConnect, Jeff Holt to be the special guest during the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesday.
    iCoreConnect is credited with supporting one of the nation’s largest payers with the technology needed to quickly and accurately approve and deny claims, while also greatly reducing the denial rates for that payer’s remote home health division.
    Holt is expected to debunk many of the prevailing myths that seem to swirl around coders and their work product.
    Also during the broadcast, these instantly recognizable panelists will report more news during their segments:
    • The Coding Report: Laurie Johnson, senior healthcare consultant with Revenue Cycle Solutions, LLC, will report on the latest coding news.

    • Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.

    • News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent and regulatory expert, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.

  • Ships and airplanes apparently vanish into thin air. Mystery abounds. It’s the legendary Bermuda Triangle. But wait! Might there also be a healthcare Bermuda Triangle?

    Internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. H. Steven Moffic will make the case for just that during the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays.

    Dr. Moffic will report on the three key legs of this pressing issue. September is National Suicide Awareness Month. Next Sept. 11 marks the 23rd anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, after which came an associated rise of Islamophobia. Finally, there was a recent report on the increase of burnout among healthcare professionals. Dr. Moffic is expected to report on how these mental health challenges have evolved into systems which, he believes, can be improved.

  • As global temperatures soar and heatwaves become more frequent, the connection between climate change and rising heat is undeniable. The results are not limited to uncontrolled wildfires but extend to widespread health consequences of excess heat from immediate threats like heat exhaustion and heat stroke to the exacerbation of chronic conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

    Vulnerable populations, including the elderly, children, and outdoor workers, face heightened risks, with heat stress also impacting mental health, leading to increased anxiety and depression.
    The broader implications for public health are staggering, straining healthcare systems and economic resources and further impacting populations through air quality declines, vector-borne diseases, and food insecurity.
    To address this burgeoning problem America need comprehensive strategies, including public health interventions, urban planning innovations, and robust updates to policies and behavior. During the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesday, Dr. Nick will explore how we mitigate and adapt to our new warmer future.
    Also during the next Talk Ten Tuesday broadcast, these instantly recognizable segments will include the following:

    • RegWatch: Former Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) career professional Stanley Nachimson will report on the latest regulatory news coming out of Washington, D.C.

  • Where in the world is G2211?
    Both payers and providers still report lack of information from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) about use of this code. If you remember, CMS promised stakeholders an FAQ document back in January. To date it has not been released.
    And yet, knowing how to document the service is probably the most-asked question when it comes to this code. Currently there are no specific documentation guidelines from CMS, but there are best-practice tips based on the code description and other documentation guidelines.
    During the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays, Lenota Williams will review some of the questions she and her team have been hearing from providers – such as the status of reimbursement, and what coders probably should expect going forward.

  • As if buried in shifting sands like a booby trap, Modifier 25 is poised to wreak havoc on claims when it’s appended incorrectly to an evaluation and management (E&M) charge – typically to indicate a separate service on the same date of service.

    So, what’s a provider to do? When is it actually appropriate to append Modifier 25?

    How do providers indicate that there was a significant yet separately identifiable E&M service that went above and beyond the typical pre- and post-work associated with the applicable procedure?

    And how can providers avoid a possible audit by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG)?

    In response to these and other questions, ICD10monitor and Talk Ten Tuesday have invited Leonta Williams, AAPC Director of Education, to serve as the broadcast’s next special guest.

  • The ongoing consolidation of independent physician practices, in many cases resulting in ownership by private equity groups and large health systems, is causing a shift from traditional medicine to the corporate practice of medicine.

    What are the solutions to this ongoing crisis?
