Rounding out the 4th of our 4 roundtable discussions at the 2013 ISLCP Welcome Reception on Friday, September 27, 2013, 6:00 - 7:30 pm, is "Researching Pricing with Medical Codes and Databases."
Do you use medical codes (CPT, ICD-9, MS-DRG, etc.) as part of your Life Care Plan research methodology?
Do you know what the various codes mean, how to use them, and which ones are or are not applicable for your client's needs - can you defend them?
Do you want to make sense of what all the talk is about "coding"?
Then come to this roundtable discussion led by an experienced Life Care Planner and Certified Medical Coder. Learn what medical codes are, how to use them, why to use them, and how and when they can be incorporated into your Life Care Plan research. Learn what databases are available for researching the cost of items for a Life Care Plan and what the databases mean. Learn how to work with "coders" to get the information needed for your Life Care Plan.
Looking forward to seeing everybody in Atlanta.
