Summary: In what would be the biggest change in two decades, CMS is proposing to re-define the documentation requirements for E&M Coding in 2019. They are proposing to forego the 1995 and 1997 guidelines for what is being reported as a “simpler model” and a “patient over paperwork” concept.<br> But what isn’t being addressed is the huge financial impact this will have for specialty physicians across the board. There is only a 60-day window where physicians, specialty societies and AMA can comment on these changes.<br> That window ends September 10th, 2018: so time is of the essence!<br> Terry breaks down everything you need to know so that you are informed when you fight for what is rightfully yours.<br> Subscribe and Listen<br> You can subscribe to our podcasts via:<br> <br> * iTunes – <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/codecast-medical-billing-coding-insights/id1305926627" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/codecast-medical-billing-coding-insights/id1305926627</a><br> * Google Play Music – <a href="https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Ia47t6quqphhsanlzpajk37yiga" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Ia47t6quqphhsanlzpajk37yiga</a><br> * Stitcher – <a href="http://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=156874" target="_blank" rel="noopener">http://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=156874</a><br> * TuneIn – <a href="https://tunein.com/radio/CodeCast--Medical-Billing-p1056702/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://tunein.com/radio/CodeCast–Medical-Billing-p1056702/</a><br> * YouTube – <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoNm5vs6PFMIEDa5Undidlg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoNm5vs6PFMIEDa5Undidlg</a><br> <br> If you’d like to become a sponsor of the CodeCast podcast please contact us directly for pricing: <a href="https://www.terryfletcher.net/contact/">https://www.terryfletcher.net/contact/</a><br>
