how can I take your class
E/M gives me anxiety. Thank you for explaining it so thoroughly!
Just got my CPC certification 🎉 trying to get better teaching from your videos while trying to job hunt and do the practicode 😊
@@kimmyjoe59 I’ll be graduating from this program I’m in to get associates degree in medical coding and billing, what happens if you don’t past the first time?
@aaronparson5768 the course I took through my community college covered two tries. So if I would have failed they would cover the cost. After that I would have to pay out of my pocket to take it again
These came in just in time, I’m struggling at this part of my learning (cpt in general is taking me longer to grasp) but e&m threw me for a loop. Thank you!!!
Keep on keeping on. You'll get there! I can't stop studying! This is so much fun for me to learn this unique language. Karen fellow coder.
So am I. I have already extended my course by two months and am determined not to have to do it again...then came the E & M Chapter....Best of luck to you - at least we're close to the finish line.
Me too !!!!
Ditto! I was trucking along with my course then screeched to a halt with this section! So glad to hear it’s not just me. I’m not going crazy!
Same
Thank you for making the E/M videos! Can't wait to see more!
I coded 2023 DOS for the first time today..... ED charts. Wow! I used to enjoy leveling E/M's. Now? Not so much!😵💫 My employer did provide rather extensive training to all coders and auditors and we had to pass an assessment (with >90% accuracy) before being allowed to code 2023 DOS. I am looking forward to your upcoming videos on this topic.
Excellent video. Can you please break down the guidelines for 2023 E/M, also can you please discuss scenarios that would support each level of MDM,/discussion of each level. Would also love to see the dx coding aspect too in the case studies. Thank you 😇
I totally agree becuz I still don't get it and mad they deleted them codes it was just fine lol
These videos help me so much Im in a online medical billing and coding class and feeling lost on some things. You are my real teacher ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. Thank you
The best in the business when it comes to coding. Bless you!!!!
I love that you gave a back history of e/m changes in the beginning
Can you do a video just on Z codes. I have the hardest time with knowing when I’m supposed to code them and what to look up to know which one to code.
I'll add it on to my content ideas list. Thanks!
I can’t wait for more videos on this topic , thank you Victoria
Bless you for this. I had a hard time in college understanding the grading system in college. Even with a tutor I was confused.
Hey Victoria I just received my books for 2023 I am reading the E/M companion book I see what they did it does make it totally easier
Thank you, I can’t wait for the E/M series. I am eager to learn 📚.
PERFECT!!! This is exactly the content i was looking for🥰. So excited for this series. Thank You!
I knew it changed I watched the older series you made I knew it was different from other videos. Here now.
Waiting for your next video. I find really difficult e and m.
Thank you!!! I can't wait for more videos on E/M coding!!!
Yay!! Can't wait to see more videos!! Thank you!!!
Looking forward to it! Very much appreciative.
Was waiting for this! Thank you! Can’t wait for your upcoming videos
More to come!
Eagerly await the next videos. You are so helpful.
Loved it. Waiting for the next vedios
Looking forward for more videos 🙌thanks a lot❤
Thank you for your videos. Looking forward for the continuation.
You bet!
Thank you! I am doing Practicode right now. E/m drives me nuts
Love this! Great explanation.
That's great, thanks from pakistan
I'm working on an exercise pertaining to anesthesia. Question I have is code 99100 for age was attached to a case where no age was stated. How do I know when to add the 99100 code to case when theirs's no age listed? Thanks for all you do Victoria. You are very helpful to me in the process of learning this unique language. Thanks Karen
Can you please provide an article or website link for information “ can a NPP, RN’s etc other than QHP perform CPT 99282 and higher”
Thanks this was great!
So how do all these skills carry over to a real life position? Does it really depend where you are? Do you just walk into an office and take it case by case and if you're in a doctor's clinic then pretty much your entire day would be e/m coding? Do you ever have to do e/m coding with other types of cpt coding in the same day?
Hello and help Im in school for billing and coding and I need some serious direction and help to get me passed the testing that are coming up for me. Love your videos .
Your presentations are wonderful and a joy to learn from.😊 Would you consider tutorials specific to PROFEE CODING, please? As you know, inpatient professional services/observation care tend to be coded inaccurately..💻. :( Wishing you continued success in 2024 :) 🎊
Thank you for the suggestion -- I will add it on to my list of video ideas.
Hi mam ,iam joined ur class
Can you do a video just evaluation and management on Emergency department coding
I'll add it on to the list of video ideas.
Can you tell me where you got that nifty laminated MDM template?!?
I’m super confused about why the E/M charts in the AAPC Training Manual are not included in the CPT code book. I am in the E/M chapter currently and absolutely hating it!
I believe it's on pages 8&9 ( I'm looking at the eBook version) but it's on multiple pages in portrait instead of one page landscape.
@@ContempoCoding thank you, yes, that is in the print version as well, but there are several others that are in the Training Manual. At this point, I’m not sure it would help, as I am so totally lost when it comes to the MDM part of
E/M.
For a established patient, under the Assesment and Plan- if the provider addressed the status of 3 existing chronic medical issues and evaluated 2 lab result values that was done recently, will that consitute a E&M code of 99214 ? Thanks for the advice
mam can u explain the chages in hospital inpatient or observation care services
Thanks for this video! Do you sell the score sheets?
The AMA does not permit them to be sold.
I’m about to give up. 😢
Nooooo..... don't give up!!!! Step back and reevaluate what you really understand and what you don't then gear your learning there Ok. Plus if you really want to learn it fast and well Grab a Billing position and start with Charge Entry if you can. I failed the AAPC CPC exam twice, just like I did with my Driver's license exam but 3rd time was for Me. Fail Fail Win.
🙂got my exam tomorrow
Hey thanks for what you do
My pleasure!
Could you please make a video on 95 and 97 guidelines?
Made a bunch of them.
ruclips.net/video/VCZgRFR32rc/видео.htmlsi=EVHNY0t_0siKQ43d

ruclips.net/video/YQ5bRLcpNEo/видео.htmlsi=1-x6cGqbTURgnyY4
Do you have a specific score sheet for EM?
Do we still need to know 95 and 97 guidelines for exams? CEMC and CPMA for example.
For inpt E/M in category 2, would a provider get credit for reviewing a lab that another speciality ordered? Example hospitalist ordered a cbc and a urologist reviewed the result during their rounds.
On the CPC exam we can’t use score sheets, what do we do?
Hi Victoria
I highlighted imp points in my CPC books.. can I use these books for exam .
Thank you 😊
"Handwritten notes are acceptable in the coding books only if they pertain to daily coding activities. Questions from the Study Guides, Practice Exams or the Exam itself are prohibited. Tabs may be inserted, taped, pasted, glued, or stapled in the manuals so long as the obvious intent of the tab is to earmark a page with words or numbers, not supplement information in the book. Altering, whiting out, painting, or printing over any pages within the code books (e.g., marketing pages, table of contents, reference pages, etc.) to supplement information is prohibited.
No materials (other than tab dividers) may be inserted, taped, pasted, glued, or stapled in the manuals."

So here is my dilemma… I’m billing these new hospital- Obs codes for 2023 9922*-9923* … so here is my issue, I’m billing with a 22 POS for the Obs svc and the insurance denied because these changes show INPT 👩🏻💻 so does auth needed?! 😤
I don't work with denials and don't have an answer for you. I would contact your insurance company.
Hi Victoria
Do we still use 95 or 97 guidelines for outpatient office visits?
Only for dates of service prior to 1/1/2021.
Do you do private tutoring?
As you can imagine, I receive a lot of requests for individual tutoring or one-on-one assistance, but I'm afraid I don't have the time to offer that right now. I'm currently working full-time on my RUclips channel and other projects, and I don't have the bandwidth to take on any additional commitments.
I know this may be disappointing, but I hope you understand. I appreciate your continued support, and I hope you continue to enjoy my videos!
I am taking the NHA coding exam do you have any videos about NHA; or do they work hand and hand with the AAPC
I don't really deal much with the NHA as their credentials are only accepted in certain locations. Search Indeed job listings for "CBCS" and then search for "CPC" and you'll see what I mean.
On the AMA MDM sheet from NAMAS, it say at the top left corner, "based on 2 out of 3 elements of MDM or time", so can we just use time?
Time is not considered for appropriate level of care code selection
Great information. Please send or attach link
Please verify -- what link? Did I miss one in the video description?
Hi Victoria, I noticed that you write for Kodehealth. I have a felony that is thirty years old, will this prevent me from being employed at Kodehealth
Contact info@kodehealth.com and they will be able to assist with your question.
excellent.
Hello mam, there are any book where all cpt guidlines updated given , Please suggest
You can find them in the CPT book.
I have a question. So we have to code for E & M, plus diagnosis and procedure??
When performing medical coding, all diagnoses and services are coded.
4:54 wait hold up... Victoria has a gaming PC? Victoria is a hardcore gamer confirmed. 😆
Helloooo! Do you have a latest reviewer? I’m planning to take my exam this Feb 2023 and I badly need a reviewer. Please send link ❤️

Can we prepare with 2022 Cpt book to score good for exam
You are still permitted to use the 2022 book but may be at a disadvantage due to code changes. The exam will be based on 2023 codes starting January 1. I would direct you to the guidance provided by the AAPC:
www.aapc.com/certification/faq.aspx
" What year's books should I use?
Since the code sets for each coding book are updated every year, it’s essential for coders to have the current year’s books/manuals to ensure accurate performance. Reporting wrong codes can lead to denied claim submissions and substantial penalization. It’s clearly very important to get an education on the annual code set updates and to obtain new code books every year.
All AAPC exams are based on the current calendar year’s code sets, so we strongly suggest you use the current year’s books. The previous calendar year’s books may be used on an exam, but you would be at obvious disadvantage doing so. The upcoming year’s books are not allowed for exam use. The exams are updated every January for the new code sets. Examinees using their second attempt in the next calendar year will not be permitted to take the previous year's exam.
Note: Please make sure you are now using ICD-10 CM or ICD-10 PCS when needed."
Mam can you pls add subtitles for u r videos
sir, all my videos are automatically closed captioned, you just need to click the CC button on RUclips.
Thank you verymuch
Hey Victoria, I'm having trouble finding a definitive answer to this question: Do we code according to the most current guidelines no matter what the date of service? Or, do we keep all our old code books and guide sheets and use the guidelines that were in place at the exact date of the service? I had someone tell me to recycle books and someone else say to never get rid of them lol
I think the end of this video just answered my question---charts are coded according to DOS and keep everything, right? Are both dx and procedure codes all coded according to chart date? Or just E/M services? aaaagggh I'm so confused
Hi mam
Alternate code for 99235 medicare insurance pls
Hi, Im a Filipino can I become a medical coder? How? Tnx
Yes, find training near you and get certified as a CPC.
Do you offer E&M training 🤔
At this time the videos on RUclips are all that is provided -- I do not have updated E&M courses for sale.
Please provide link for 2023 cpt pdf
Hi there! If you need a copy of the 2023 CPT book, please purchase one from a vendor such as Amazon or the AAPC. Sending scans would be a copyright violation.
Is anyone else here from online coding courses? First day of E&M chapter and watching this makes no sense whatsoever.
Is 2023 CPT Books pdf available for free?
And ICD pdf also
No, it is copyrighted and free pdfs would be illegal.
ICD 10 data files are available on the CDC or WHO websites but not in book format.
Ooh okay 😊 thank you for your reply
@@ContempoCoding okay 👍😊
Hello CC,
Do you have a regular email address? I sent a message on FB messenger.
How Indians can get opportunity to get medical coding job in USA make a video on this topic.
Hi there! Sorry, that is within my scope to provide information on.
Doctors taking care of patients, as they trained and were educated to do? that's a wild idea 🤣🤣
Don’t do it
If I have doubt can contact you directly
As you can imagine, I receive a lot of requests for individual tutoring or one-on-one assistance, but I'm afraid I don't have the time to offer that right now. I'm currently working full-time on my RUclips channel and other projects, and I don't have the bandwidth to take on any additional commitments.
