Get on top of your Ambulatory Surgery Coding & Reimbursement challenges in Orlando

When an outpatient receives medical treatment, it’s called ambulatory care or out-patient care. The term ambulatory means “capable of walking”; so ambulatory care means that you are able to walk in and walk out of the hospital that is providing the medical care.While some hospitals offer out-patient care, most ambulatory care is done in clinics, doctors’ offices and even a patient’s home. However, these days a lot of hospitals are going for ambulatory care compared to having the same procedure done as an in-patient at the hospital because it saves patient’s time and money. Ambulatory surgery coding requires coders to review patient records to identify the right selection of codes which show precisely why the patient has been admitted, the severity of the disease, and the extent of care received. Ambulatory coding, therefore, throws open new challenges at regular intervals with situations that can baffle even the most experienced coders. As such, conferences where you can get expert solutions to all your ambulatory surgery coding and reimbursement challenges can help you overcome all the hurdles in your field. The Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) Coding & Reimbursement Conference, which is slated to take place in December 6-8, 2009 at Orlando, FL, Buena Vista Palace is certainly going to be a specialty-specific, information-packed conference that has been designed to help you prevail over your most challenging coding and billing challenges. And with nationally-recognized experts like Cristina Bentin, CCS-P, CPC-H, CMA, and Joanne Schade-Boyce, RDH, MS, CPC, ACS, PCS, lending their presence to this conference, you stand to walk home richer in your ambulatory coding know-how!
