Make Your CPT® Code Look-Up Easy And Tension Free With CPT® Assistant

Coding would have so much easier if only there were not so many code revisions, additions, and deletions happening every year, and so many CCI edits to keep a track of. If medical terms were easy and you didn't have to sit with a dictionary, if comprehending the physician documentation wouldn't leave you scratching your head and pouring over manuals for a simple CPT® codes lookup, coding would be fun too. Right?

Wrong! Even with all these challenges slowing you down, coding can be fun and simple too. Yes, you can now report accurate, clean, and error-free claims and get minimum number of denials.

So what are the resources you need for accurate and denial-free claims?

You must have access to a medical dictionary, such as Stedman's, and have access to CPT® manual, HCPCS codes, ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes in your medical tools basket. Either an online access or printed copies will do, but make sure that you have the most updated manuals. In addition, you should also have access to CPT® Assistant.
