Demystifying the Modifiers, version 2.0
A self-paced CD-ROM continuing education course
Preapproved for 16.0 CEUs by AAPC
CPT modifiers in conjunction with CPT codes, when used
correctly, allow the provider to more accurately document and
report services that were provided. Knowing how modifiers work
with CPT codes enables the coder to report many different, and
even unusual, events that might occur during a service or
procedure, that are not reported just using the code alone. In
certain situations, the use of modifiers is required.
Demystifying the Modifiers is a
self-paced, CD-ROM course that reviews all HCPCS Level I CPT
modifiers, including Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) modifiers, listed in the CPT manual.
Who should take this course?
 |
Physician coding and billing staff |

|
CPC and CPC-H certification holders fulfilling AAPC annual CEU

This course features in-depth coverage of modifier usage, the
do’s and don’ts of modifiers, and guidelines on how to support
the modifier used (supporting documentation). This course also
takes a close look at modifiers that are similar in description,
and emphasizes the differences for a better understanding of
usage and reporting. Throughout the course each modifier is
identified if it is appropriate for use in ASC settings, or not.
Demystifying the Modifiers also takes a look at the more
common HCPCS Level II modifiers – their usage, guidelines, and
reporting purposes.

The self-paced nature of the course allows you to work at your
own pace. This is also an excellent way to satisfy the
continuing education provision of the compliance plan of a
physician practice or third party billing firm.
This course has been pre-approved for 16.0 Continuing Education
Units from the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC).
So for a reasonable expense, you’ll be able to tune up your
knowledge and fulfill a large portion of your annual CEU
requirement!
