With the pandemic creating financial challenges for many operations and the great resignation weakening the knowledge of staff, every coding reimbursement dollar counts. Nuclear medicine has been bombarded with a host of denials as coders continue to struggle with coding changes for planar, SPECT, SPECT/CT, and myocardial PET scans as well as the ever-changing NCCI edits. This session will address the biggest recurring challenges in nuclear medicine/PET coding and billing, plus must-know 2023 changes, such as expected changes to NCDs for PET procedures, potential deep cuts to reimbursement rates and new NCCI guidelines for PET/CT scans when CTs are read separately.
Nuclear medicine has been bombarded with a host of denials as coders continue to struggle with coding changes for planar, SPECT, SPECT/CT, and myocardial PET scans as well as the ever-changing National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) edits. It’s no wonder that 70% of radiology coders that we polled said that nuclear medicine is their most challenging modality. Our nuclear medicine and PET experts are not surprised. They routinely uncover rampant errors and omissions, from the incorrect use of add-on codes, to mistakenly reporting a whole-body exam when the documentation only supports a limited exam.
Nuclear medicine must now grapple with new radiopharmaceuticals and codes, expected changes to NCDs, and threats to reimbursement for 2023.
Fortunately, you can overcome these challenges, while you prepare for the new year, with guidance from Cathy Huyghe and our 2023 Nuclear Medicine Coding, Reimbursement & Compliance Review webcast. Cathy will guide you through some of the biggest recurring challenges in nuclear medicine/PET coding and billing, plus must-know 2023 changes, such as expected changes to NCDs for PET procedures, potential deep cuts to reimbursement rates, and new NCCI guidelines for PET/CT scans when CTs are read separately. Don’t miss out on this once-a-year learning opportunity perfect for both audio and visual learners.
