Chronic Wound Care Coding, Billing and Documentation Webinar

Mastering Chronic Wound Care: Coding, Billing, and Documentation Essentials

This overview into chronic wound care will look carefully and comprehensively to achieve three things: accurate, complete coding and billing and documentation that will support the medical necessity of wound care treatment modalities, whether they be standard care to advanced therapies. From simple debridement to hyperbaric oxygen treatment or application of skin substitutes, we will address them all, answering your questions and giving proven tools to help you maximize your claims and reimbursement. We will also address claims issues and ways to effectively battle claims denials.

Why is this topic important?
There is an increasing aging population which mean those individuals needing wound care is also increasing. There is no definitive guide to wound care coding so this helps to meet that need, in part.
