Synopsis:
The fastest, easiest access to the right IR codes, every time Interventional radiology coding has changed dramatically over the years. But one thing that hasn't changed is the popularity of our trusted Interventional Radiology Coder book. In fact, it remains our number-one selling resource. Why? Quite simply, its unique "menus" provide the fastest, easiest access to the correct CPTr/HCPCS codes for hundreds of common and not-so-common IR procedures - critically important in an era where IR coding accuracy rates continue to hover around 70%. Of course, we update each year's edition of Interventional Radiology Coder with the latest codes and coding guidelines. You also get clear-cut guidance through those tricky gray areas, including bundled, hybrid-bundled and component coding. Tools such as quick coding tips, FAQs in each chapter and anatomical illustrations provide additional clarity and further accelerate your code selection and validation process. Features and Benefits Actionable insight into any new, deleted, and revised codes for reporting IR procedures Guidance with parenthetical note revisions Billing tips and expanded guidance with common problem areas FAQ sections at the end of each chapter, delivering additional insights into difficult areas Our experts address common questions, concerns, and problem areas: Confusion and questions about coding for: Biliary procedures - imaging, drainage catheters, stent placement/exchange, biopsy Genitourinary procedures - imaging, stent placement/exchange, biopsy Dialysis circuit - AV graft/fistula Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair Cryoablation treatment for pulmonary tumors Diagnostic bone marrow procedures Coding for pain management and venous sclerosing/ablation procedures - significant sources of revenue for many IR providers Proper application of bundled, hybrid-bundled and component codes Clear, step-by-step guidance through the tasks you perform every day: Coding for hundreds of vascular and
