You need to be armed with the best and most current information available to make sure you re up to date and know what s coming around the next corner.

3 HERE S A PREVIEW FRIDAY, MAY 13 An Intense Focus on Billing, Coding, and Charting One of the most requested, and needed, workshops is Billing and Coding. Rightfully so! We survived the initial implementation of ICD-10. Now we have to focus on upcoming changes to meaningful use, PQRS, and even look at ICD-10 with the upcoming increased specificity requirement. We also need to re-focus on proper coding and reimbursement, and ensure that our charting accurately supports your coding to make sure you are successful in defending an audit. We will provide fresh and new ideas to maximize your practice potential with clean and proper coding techniques. We will help you navigate the upcoming changes in healthcare and health policy. Topics Include: Updates on CPT, ICD-10, PQRS, and Meaningful Use Proper coding for various clinical scenarios Patient Collection Strategies Coding Compliance Coding for DME and Wound Care and MUCH MORE! SATURDAY, MAY 14 Tools for Business Success A podiatric practice is a small (and sometimes not so small) business. Practitioners, however, are not equipped with basic business skills to thrive in business. Learning on the job is not efficient and often leads to errors that will greatly affect your practice. This day of NEW CONTENT will address many areas of concern for the practicing foot and ankle specialist and will result in a better understanding of business principles. Business Principles include: Human Resources: Hiring the Best Team for Success The Economics of Running a Small Business Revenue Cycle Management: Keeping the Cash Flowing Crystal Ball: Looking towards the Future of Podiatric Practice FRIDAY, MAY 13 SATURDAY, MAY 14 Comprehensive Medical Assistant Training Your medical assistants are the lifeblood of your practice. They help to ensure that your practice runs efficiently and effectively. They are largely responsible for patient satisfaction and compliance, as well. In short, your assistants make you look good! Whether your team is brand new, or has years of experience, this two-day training course will enhance their understanding of your practice and increase their skills to add value to your practice. Important information and skills that all MA s need to know will be put to the test with hands on training. Day 1 of the medical assistant track delivers comprehensive education and training on the often overlooked administrative side of medical assisting. Medical assistants will learn from DPM and PMAC experts alike, taking home valuable tools and techniques to improve the day to day administrative responsibilities from managing the schedule to collecting payments. Day 2 of the medical assistant track focuses on the ever important clinical aspect of medical assisting. A panel of practice management leaders will teach attendees through hands on training and interaction how to perform to a new level of competence and proficiency within the back office. Medical assistants will take away turnkey tips and systems to enhance clinical methods and procedures from routine care to surgical interventions. Friday evening join us for Wine Tasting and Cigars Under the Stars! This is a social event with your colleagues and the conference speakers. While you are there, enjoy from a selection of fine wines and, if you like, have a cigar. The reception is sponsored by Top Practices and BAKO Integrated Physician Solutions.
