About Coding For Pediatrics 2019: A Manual For Pediatric
Product Description This year's completely updated 24th edition includes all changes in CPT codes- complete with expert guidance for their application. The book's many clinical examples and vignettes, as well as the many coding pearls throughout, provide added guidance needed to ensure accuracy and payment. Key updates include - A new section, Coding Basics and Business Essentials, includes general topics of interest to all pediatricians. - A new chapter that introduces each code set- CPT, ICD-10-CM, HCPCS, and NCD- and illustrates how codes are reported on claims. - New sections feature content related primarily to outpatient services and those primarily for hospital settings for ease of reference. - A new chapter centers on coding for mental and behavioral health services, including developmental and neuropsychiatric testing (codes change in 2019). - ICD-10-CM and CPT 2019 code updates are included. About the Author The AAP Committee on Coding and Nomenclature (COCN) is responsible for reviewing of all proposed changes to CPT and ICD-10-CM coding structures to determine whether the Academy will endorse the proposal; participates in the American Medical Association/Specialty Society Relative Value Scale Update Committee's (RUC) survey process by validating clinical vignettes, evaluating survey data, and deciding on physician work and practice expense relative value units (RVUs) to recommend to the RUC; and serves as a review panel regarding other activities such as identifying Academy positions on the RBRVS. The COCN also monitors the Medicare RBRVS physician fee schedule and its adoption by private and public payers.
