Below the Surface: Wound Care Coding Beyond the Basics
You already know debridement is coded by depth. The hard part is a note that doesn't say what tissue came off, or a wound measured one way on Monday and another way on Thursday. This session goes past the basics with examples from podiatry, vascular surgery, general surgery, and wound care clinics. We'll connect the wound assessment and procedure note to the diagnosis, the debridement code, the add-ons, and the modifiers, then look at the claim problems that keep coming up.
