The new edition also responds to requests for greater breadth of Intelligent Medical Records (IMR) tools and includes:
Recommended by the American Medical Association, this is a one-of-a-kind resource that includes commentary sections, helpful tips, and examples that convey the "real world" applications of Practical E/M concepts. This book assists the user in correctly identifying the types of services and the levels of medical necessity. Excerpts: Acknowledgements, Table of Contents, Introduction, Preface, Prologue As an added benefit, this resource includes a complete sample intelligent medical record (IMR) form. Use this form as a reference as you work through each IMR level of detail outlined throughout the book. 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. You may also be interested:
