Episode 59: Getting Paid for What You've Done - Winning the Coding Game - A Conversation with Anne Hirsch, MD

Medical Money Matters with Jill Arena

You work hard for the money, but are you getting all of the money you've actually earned? "Coding" and "game" don't usually collide in the same sentence, but understand that it IS a game. And, it's one you can win!
Join me for a conversation with Anne Hirsch, MD a practicing internist and national coding expert. Anne walks through the distinction and many of the basics of CPT and HCC coding. She shares common HCC codes that she uses, and encourages you to find them and increase your reimbursement too.
We walk through opportunities for physicians to improve your CPT coding distributions, and how to shift the focus of coding and coding audits from one of compliance to one of opportunity for revenue capture, and how to get you credit for the work you've already done. We talk about "over-coding" vs. "under-documenting" and the amount of increased revenue you can expect with some focus on how to win the game.
