Each year there are updates to some of the most critical parts billing and coding by means of CPT® and the Medicare Physicians Fee Schedule. In 2024 there is a new to way in which caregiver training is reported and there is still some confusion on when modifiers have to be assigned to procedures involving assistants. Each year there are also possible updates to the Medicare policies for therapy with new threshold limits and the annual “always therapy” listing that also requires the use of modifiers.
This webinar will look at the issues for 2024. 2024 had some changes in therapy related to caregiver training. We need to assess the use of assistants now that we should have been reporting on their involvement with modifiers. Our expert speaker will talk about the Physicians Fee Schedule Final Rule for 2024 along with the annual therapy update and any other CMS changes.
