Rethinking Critical Care Coding Beyond the Bedside
Update: 2025-11-20
Description
Critical care coding isn’t just about time at the bedside. In this new episode of Compliance Conversations, CJ Wolf and Maya Turner discuss how recent CPT® guidance expands what’s billable, from telehealth consults to pre-arrival care coordination.
Key Takeaways:
- When critical care starts (and where it doesn’t)
- CPT® vs. CMS Guidance— and what happens when they differ
- How to handle transport, telehealth, and overlapping E/M services
- Ways to help providers feel recognized — even when the answer is “no”
Here is a link to the OIG audits referenced in the episode.
