More than 180,000 of your colleagues rely on the Eli Research for analysis and strategies to improve their bottom lines in the face of shrinking Medicare budgets and HMOs. Eli
Research is a research and information company with over 60 print
and online publications serving core markets of health care, law
and financial services. They currently serve a reader base of over
100,000 business executives nationwide, 80 percent of whom are top
officers at their respective companies. Their roots go back to 1947
with the founding of Medicine and Health -- the oldest health
policy newsletter in the country. In February of 2001 they
acquired the Washington DC-based Health Care Information Center,
including Medicine and Health and 30 other titles formerly
published by Faulkner and Gray. In building their company, they have
focused exclusively on providing high-quality news and analysis for
professionals who need critical news and information to survive and
prosper. Eli Research and Eli Healthcare have distinguished
themselves from other publishers by providing intelligent analysis
of new strategies, rather than simply reporting on industry
developments. This monthly newsletter is a practical monthly advisor for accurate outpatient therapy coding, optimal billing and optimal reimbursement. Please remember that 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 above implementation dates. The best way to do this is to order your coding resources early. Review additional coding resources.
