On June 1, APMA held its Health Policy and Practice in-person meeting, covering several key topics aimed at enhancing member engagement and education. During our discussion, we explored methods to educate members on code 11730, ensuring they are well-versed in its application and nuances. Additionally, we discussed many ways to engage young physicians and residents, recognizing that we may need to provide some health policy material directed toward young physicians. We also emphasized the importance of providing more education on accessing and checking MIPS Cost reports. Furthermore, the meeting included a comprehensive legislative report, highlighting ongoing advocacy efforts and policy updates, alongside numerous other agenda items critical to the advancement of our field. Please keep an eye out in the next couple of weeks, as we plan on compiling materials for members to view.
The Coding Committee will meet virtually on Saturday, June 8. It will review issues and questions related to common or trending coding questions and will set the committee’s priorities for the upcoming year. The Coding Committee will also evaluate its current coding educational opportunities for members including APMA’s successful coding webinar series, and develop future programing. APMA has a wealth of coding information at no cost to members at www.apma.org/coding.
If you are experiencing coding issues or have general coding areas where you would like more information from APMA, please send an email outlining those issues to coding.hpp@apma.org.
The outcomes from these discussions will be shared in future APMA publications.
