New E/M Coding And Documentation Guidelines In
2023
A new set of Current Procedural Terminology (CPT)
codes are to be released by the American Medical
Association for 2023. The update aims to reduce
the burden of coding regarding the E/M
(evaluation and management) visits. The E/M
coding and documentation changes can be termed as
once-in-a-generation guidelines restructuring in
2023. With several deletions, alterations, and
additions in the coding and documentation
guidelines, many providers believe it will be a
game changer.

The Deleted E/M CPT 2023 Codes
Code 99241 is used for an office consultation,
and code 99251 for inpatient consultation, both
of which fall under the Consultations heading,
will be deleted. Nursing facility services that
fall under the 99318 codes will be deleted. 99339
and 99340 codes associated with rest home,
domiciliary, and home care plan will be
deleted. Home visit code 99343 associated with
new patients will be deleted under the Home
Services header. The add-on codes for the
prolonged services 99354 99357 will be
deleted. 49562 49657 codes for Laparoscopy are
also targeted. Apart from these, several codes
under Category III are expected to be deleted or
either moved to Category I or made obsolete.

Revised E/M CPT 2023 Codes
With the deletion of the codes, the AMA had to
revise the description of other codes for the E/M
section. Some of the revisions that will be done
include the following The Hospital Inpatient
Services header is the first point of discussion
on whether the revised codes now include
inpatient or observation care. Similarly, the
outpatient or office consultation codes will be
modified to include office or other outpatient
consultation. The revisions further keep with
the AMAs guidelines that level the use of
medical decision-making (MDM) and time. Likewise,
even the prolonged service code is expected to be
revised to specify that it will be used for an
E/M outpatient, not for office or other
outpatient services. It must be noted that there
are expectations for revisions in the description
regarding the interprofessional telephone,
electronic health record and internet
consultation codes, cognitive assessments, and
code for the care plan service.

New CPT 2023 Codes for E/M
Several new codes will be entered in the E/M
section that overlooks several subsections. Some
of them are like New codes for integumentary
subsections will be added, and so are the codes
for the Musculoskeletal System subsection, which
is for the total disc arthroplasty. Surgeons must
now deal with five new codes in the
Cardiovascular subsection to report percutaneous
pulmonary artery revascularization by stent
placement. Likewise, two new codes will be added
for surgeons to report in the upper extremity
about the percutaneous arteriovenous fistula
creation. and Laboratory, radiology, and even the
medicine section have to deal with eleven, one,
and ten new codes, respectively.  Lastly, the new
CPT codes for E/M have not ignored the emerging
services, procedures, and technology and placed
many new codes in Category III.

How To Get Equipped with New E/M Coding and
Documentation
The changes, deletion, revising, and addition of
new codes for documentation in the E/M, effective
from January 1, 2023, will be challenging for
every medical coder and biller. Any failure to
abide by these changes and guidelines will result
in a claim denial, delay, or rejection, which
will mean a loss of revenue. When efficient
running of the service with effective care is at
the forefront of any hospital, learning these new
guidelines by the facilitys staff means reducing
the time to offer help to patients and better
running of the hospital. So, why not allow the
experienced medical billing and coding services
to take care of the patients and other admin
jobs? Partner with a medical billing and coding
company like 24/7 Medical Billing Services, which
will take care of the medical billing by adhering
to the new E/M coding and documentation
guidelines in 2023. There will be no revenue
loss instead, you will get a successful claim on
time so your facility can run smoothly.
