Participants will learn how medical necessity, operative technique, anatomical location, and measurements guide CPT®, ICD-10-CM, and modifier selection. The program will also distinguish complex repair from adjacent tissue transfer and address NCCI edits, payer requirements, and documentation strategies that reduce claim denials and audit-related recoupments.

  1. Differentiate common scar revision and plastic procedures performed in podiatric practice, including complex repair and adjacent tissue transfer, based on the operative technique, anatomical site, and documented measurements.
  2. Select appropriate CPT® codes, ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes, and modifiers by applying operative documentation, NCCI edits, and applicable payer-specific billing requirements.
