Description: The supplemental health market is changing. Carriers are looking to simplify claims processes, proactively identify missed claim opportunities, and reduce barriers to claim payment. As a result, more and more companies are looking at ways to use data from medical diagnostic and treatment codes. Take an introductory look at the most used medical codes—ICD (9 and 10), CPT, and HCPCS. Discuss the history and purpose of each code system and decipher the structure. Dive into how medical codes can be used in the supplemental health market (automatic claims adjudication, fraud identification, pricing), as well as common pitfalls encountered when using medical coding. By attending this session, you will have a basic understanding of the different types of medical codes, their actuarial applications, and common pitfalls.
