Challenger E/M Coding and Compliance

Challenger E/M Coding and Compliance Table of Contents

Created by Peter Jensen, MD, a practicing physician and expert coding instructor, Challenger Fundamentals: E/M Coding and Compliance is concise and entertaining series of physician-to-physician presentations designed to help physicians understand E/M (Evaluation and Management) Coding procedures and guidelines so they can positively and negatively impact your practice and your bottom line. The clinically-driven, fully-interactive, and narrated lessons cover a variety of settings and go through the rational decision-making processes involved as well as many experts tips that can save you time, money, and trouble.

When this stimulating education on physician coding techniques is completed, the typical physician can realize a 25-40% improvement in auditing and billing outcomes, fewer chart rejections, and a greatly reduced risk of investigational audit. 

This course will enable you to:

• Avoid Undercoding and Increase Reimbursement. Everyone appreciates getting reimbursed appropriately by the system as well as getting paid for what you do. This course helps you do just that by understanding what to code when and what's worth what. Are you letting money that's rightfully yours get away?
• Avoid "the RAC". Today's coding watchdogs are Recovery Audit Contractors (RACs) and they have real power to impact your livelihood. A single RAC can look at your charts and should they find an overcoding or other favorable oddity they can extrapolate that error back over a full three years - and you'll have to pay. You don't want that letter that tells you, "you owe us $100,000" for a $2000 coding mistake!
• Understand Rational Coding and Ensure Compliance Guidelines. By knowing what the experts do you can code your encounters faster and more reliably stay in compliance. Dr. Jensen's lessons are based on real-world, in-practice rationale and given in a peer-to-peer style to immediately register with you as a physician, not as professional coder. In the end, you'll know how to approach encounters with more effectiveness to your practice time, bottom line, and risk management.
• Self-Study Anytime and Earn Valuable CME Credits. Enhance your mastery of these subjects anytime through challenging assessment quizzes, and also earn a variety of CME credits.
• Understand "Trailblazer" Coding. Clinicians can also get specialized instruction regarding Trailblazer Coding schemes used in CO, NM, OK, TX, and VA.
