Webinar for physicians, coders focuses on telehealth

Action item

Register for our March Lunch & Learn webinar focusing on telehealth coding.

In 2025, we’ll continue to offer webinars about documentation and coding of common challenging diagnoses. These live, lunchtime educational sessions will also include an opportunity to ask questions.

We’re happy to announce the first webinar for the year based on feedback from past attendees. The session starts at noon Eastern time and should last for 30 minutes. Register for the session on the provider training website. We’re currently working on the schedule for the rest of the year and will announce those dates in the March issue.
