Recording: Re-Exam Reality Check: When E/M and CMT Can Coexist (1 CEU)


Total Credits: 1 including 1 Distance Learning - Documentation/Ethics



Description

Chiropractors must comply with the same E/M documentation rules as other healthcare providers—but most guidelines were never written with chiropractic in mind. Dr. Gwilliam explores one of chiropractic’s most common billing and compliance headaches: performing and documenting a re-exam on the same day as a CMT. Learn how to identify when a re-evaluation is clinically justified, how to document it as a “significant, separately identifiable” service, and how to apply the correct modifiers and diagnosis pointers to minimize denials while maintaining ethical compliance.

  • Identify clinical situations that justify a separately reportable E/M service in conjunction with CMT.
  • Apply payer and coding guidance—including the 25 modifier and NCCI edits—to create compliant re-exam documentation.
  • Distinguish between routine care and medically necessary re-evaluations to ensure accurate, defensible records.
