YES Events: CPT Spinal Fusion Coding Webinar Presented by Vanessa Youmans in Partnership with TruCode
In conjunction with TruCode’s Educational Series of free webinars, Vanessa Youmans, COO, will host a webinar focused on CPT Spinal Fusion Procedures at 2 pm Eastern on Tuesday, June 22.
This free TruCode webinar will focus on how to apply the CPT codes and guidelines for spinal fusion, arthrodesis, and related procedures. Participants will learn the overall anatomy of the spine, components of the vertebrae, and common disorders that prompt this type of procedure. In addition, this session will cover spinal fusion case studies at the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar levels.
Webinar Topics That We Will Cover
During the webinar, participants will:
- Describe the overall anatomy of the spine and components of the vertebrae
- Discuss common procedures that may necessitate this type of procedure
- Define the CPT guidelines for arthrodesis, including portions of the procedure that you need to code separately
- List the elements to be selected from the documentation for assignment of the appropriate CPT codes
- Apply the guidelines and codes to cases of spinal arthrodesis
Webinar participants will receive 1 AHIMA CEU for attending the webinar. Sharpen your understanding of CPT Spinal Fusion Procedures.
We will also publish a recap of the main points from the TruCode webinar on the YES Blog after the event in June. In the meantime, download the presentation slides here.
