2023 E/M Documentation Quick Reference Card Set (10 pack)

Provider uncertainty surrounding the proper selection of E/M service codes is the most common cause of up coding and down coding—exposing physicians and the practice/facility to greater audit risk and OIG scrutiny. 

With significant changes to the facility-based E/M code set in 2023, you can keep these cards handy for at-a-glance guidance and reinforcement to ensure the most appropriate level of service is selected and coded correctly with emphasis on the patient's presenting problem. No longer will you use history and exam to determine code level selection, and these cards reflect the focus on medical decision-making and time.

Features include: 

• Updated to include the upcoming changes to E/M facility-based documentation guidelines. You'll find extensive updates to inpatient and observation codes, nursing facility codes, discharge services, emergency department visits and more.
  
  
• The cards contain the new MDM elements and refreshed times per service to reflect the overhauled documentation guidelines. The updated cards provide a quick-glance guide to coding by MDM or time.
  
  
• Rules for documentation complexity levels—spelled out clearly on each compliance-ready card for easy reference by physician coders, office coders and auditors alike.

• 10 portable, pocket-sized and laminated cards—perfect for everyday use. 
  
  
• Buy one set for easy distribution to all clinicians doing their own E/M coding in a small or mid-sized practice, or more than one set to have a card for every provider in your practice!
