Sept Coding Webinar: Orthopedics and Podiatry CPT and PCS

Join the Omega HealthCare Education Team as we uncover what’s behind a broken bone.  We will explore types of fractures, fracture care and surgical interventions associated with fractures.  We will also explore the anatomy of the foot, common conditions related to the foot and types of treatment.  To help facilitate your learning and enhance your coding skills, we will provide Coding Guidelines, definitions and case examples specific to different types of fractures and treatment along with podiatry care and treatment. This content will provide education that is valuable to coders and auditors in the facility and physician arena.
