During this information-packed webinar, coding and billing expert Jill M. Young, will include a step by step explanations of the technology care codes that are currently available, so the user is familiar and comfortable using each the codes when appropriate. Code details such as consent, who initiates the service, what are the time requirements for the service and for documentation of that time, who can perform a given set of codes, are there any frequency issues on the codes.
