Very thorough course. Helped to know the background as to what Medicare covers and what it doesn’t and the history behind it. Everything became a lot clearer about how the G codes work and how to make them fit into your documentation.
I was able to take good information back to my clinic, staff and the QA committee for the rest of the company’s benefit. It made a complicated topic, straight forward and much more logical (and easier to explain to others!) It is one thing to understand it yourself and a whole other thing to be able to teach it to others which is what most of us Directors have to do. Thank you for another great course. You never disappoint.

This was a very helpful course for improving my mode of documentation. It further supports how I have been documenting and has helped me be more precise with better information in each section. It has not reduced my volume of information… just improved my organization and inclusion of information.
I had previously shared this information when I had finished the course.
