Re-Exam Reality Check: When E/M and CMT Can Coexist

Chiropractors often face claim denials when billing an Evaluation and Management (E/M) code on the same day as a chiropractic manipulative treatment (CMT). This fast-paced webinar will unpack when these services can be billed together—legitimately and defensibly—based on clinical necessity, documentation standards, and payer guidelines. Learn how to distinguish routine care from re-evaluations and set your records up for success.

• -Identify the clinical and documentation requirements that support billing E/M and CMT codes on the same date of service
• -Distinguish between routine follow-up visits and medically necessary re-evaluations to support separate coding
• -Apply the key payer guidelines and billing rules that determine when E/M codes can be legitimately billed with CMT
• -Develop documentation strategies that create a defensible record for concurrent E/M and CMT billing
• -Recognize common coding errors and claim denial triggers when billing these services together
• -Implement practical workflows to ensure clinical necessity is clearly established and documented for auditing purposes
