CPT Coding
The Urgent Care industry has gone through some rapid changes in the past few years. This industry has a lot of private owners, some hospital owned practices, as well as a growing number of pop-ups in pharmacies across the country.
One of the nuances of the Urgent Care industry is that the coding for Urgent Care is different than the codes used in Emergency Departments. It is very important that all services provided by a physician in Urgent Care must be captured at the time they are performed, and they must be appropriately supported by the documentation.
