OPPS Updates - 2008
Wednesday, November 28, 2007 - Approved for 2 AAPC CEUs
After seven years of evolution, CMS continues to introduce new twists and turns in OPPS payment methodology. In 2008 we'll see more bundling of ancillary services, minimal changes to infusion payment methodology (can this be true?), and something new: Composite APCs. And what about the status of outpatient quality measures and the long-awaited CMS guidance for facility visit E & M coding?
Join us for this 2-hour comprehensive look at next year's OPPS.
