A comprehensive guide to correct coding for surgical procedures most frequently performed by obstetricians/gynecologists. Provides information about whether Medicare will reimburse for assistant or co-surgeons for various procedures, and includes sections on reproductive medicine, modifiers, RVUs and bundling issues.

The American Medical Association helps doctors help patients by uniting physicians nationwide to work on the most important professional and public health issues. The AMA is a major leader in medical publishing, offering resources such as this one that physicians really need and use.

Please remember: The government no longer allows a grace period for annual code sets. The new HIPAA Transaction and Code Set Rule requires providers to use national medical code sets that are valid at the time that a service is provided. ICD-9-CM code revisions become effective October 1st each year while CPT and HCPCS code revisions become effective January 1st. In order for you to meet this requirement, you must have the revised CPT, HCPCS, and ICD-9-CM codes in your possession before the implementation dates. The best way to do this is to order your code books early. Review current coding resources.
