Our updated HCCIntelligence™ Premier Resource HCC Coding Reference Guide helps eliminate uncertainty in coding and acts as a quick reference guide for home-based primary care providers. Not only can this resource save you hours of work, but it also can help you build a strong case for reimbursement, ensuring that the full scope of care is covered. The comprehensive resource helps practices pinpoint conditions with risk adjustment weight, offers example diagnosis codes tailored to home-based primary care, and enables practices to enhance diagnosis coding accuracy and address the complexities of their patient population’s healthcare needs. 

 Are you a house call provider, practice manager, or professional medical coder looking to understand value-based programs? If so, understanding the risk adjustment model and HCC Coding is key to maximizing payment. Updates have been made to one of our most popular courses, Risk Adjustment and HCC Coding for House Calls, based on guidelines from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. This updated course will cover key insights on where risk adjustment and HCC coding are headed, as well as help you eliminate uncertainty, save hours of work, and generate additional revenue.

• Discuss payment and documentation requirement impacts to the home and domiciliary Evaluation and Management (E/M) codes and identify alternate reimbursement opportunities.
• Call out changes to home-based medical care management services, including Chronic Care Management, Transitional Care Management, Telehealth, Behavioral Health, and Advance Care Planning
