Evaluation and Management (E/M) for the Inpatient Setting

Evaluation and Management (E/M) for the Inpatient Setting is organized by Skillacquire and will be held on Apr 22, 2020.

Description:
Evaluation and Management (E/M) codes are one of the top billing code set in the healthcare industry. These codes identify the provider’s cognitive work. Providers may be well versed on billed E/M codes in their private practices but may face some confusion and uncertainty when billing for patients they admit or are requested to provide a consult in the hospital setting.
