Reporting and Coding Separate Procedures: What Coders Need to Know
Show Notes

Many procedures in the CPT® codebook are designated "separate procedures," but that doesn't mean you can report those procedures "separately" in every case, according to nationally recognized professional coding expert Terry Fletcher, who returns to Talk Ten Tuesdays to offer insight into this topic.
