Documentation, Coding & Billing For PT & OT
Rick Gawenda, PT
President/CEO at Gawenda Seminars & Consulting and Board of Director, Limber Health
I will be coming to the states of Florida, Louisiana and Texas over the next several months presenting my updated seminar "Understanding the Complex World of Therapy Services: Documentation, Coding and Billing for Physical & Occupational Therapy"
The seminar will teach participants what interventions, techniques and procedures are included within the CPT codes most commonly used by physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, occupational therapists, and occupational therapy assistants. New and deleted CPT codes for calendar year 2020 will also be explained, including new codes for dry needling, biofeedback and cognitive training. The seminar will teach participants the national correct coding initiative (NCCI) edits and the proper use of Modifier 59 as well as Medicare’s “8-minute rule”, definition of substantial per the American Medical Association, and provide billing scenarios to ensure therapists bill correctly to all insurance carriers, including the Medicare program. Finally, the seminar will teach participants the latest on the annual Medicare therapy threshold, use of the KX modifier, claims exceeding $3,000 in a calendar year, and the new PTA and OTA modifiers the Medicare program will begin using in calendar year 2020 when services are provided in whole or in part by a physical therapist assistant or occupational therapist assistant.
This seminar has been submitted for CEU approval from AOTA as well as the physical therapy state associations in Florida, Louisiana and Texas. For additional information and to register, click HERE.
