Overview
Join us for a live-streamed interactive and comprehensive workshop covering pertinent issues related to properly coding surgical procedures and evaluation and management services. Previous attendees of the ACFAS workshop Coding and Billing for the Foot and Ankle Surgeon now code more efficiently and effectively and have seen increased reimbursement for the care they provide. By learning how to code just one or two procedures properly, you will cover the cost of this course and see an immediate return on investment in your own practice.
