The format included a 30-minute slide presentation followed by a 30-minute Virtual Office Hours segment for Q&A. Handouts and a copy of the slide deck, along with a recording, were made available to all participants.<br /><br />Key objectives included understanding the 2020 coding changes, ensuring documentation compliance, and applying correct CPT codes for care management services.
