Evaluation/Management CPT codes ("E/M codes") measure the level of provider work by weighing all pertinent medical findings documented in the history and physical examination sections of medical records in combination with assessments for the complexities and risks of diagnoses and treatments.
All physicians and other health care providers as well as managed care companies, insurers, and third party administrators utilize E/M codes for billing of office visits, hospital visits and other cognitive services. This new coding system is relatively complicated and E/M codes cannot be quickly and easily completed by providers at the point of service or by payers during audits or reviews of medical records documentation.
MDCare EMR generates more accurate, consistent E/M codes using significantly less time and effort.
