I am so glad I found your channel-- I did not hesitate to subscribe lol. I am entering into my second year pursuing my associates in medical billing and coding & I'm starting to get nervous because time is flying by and I'll be out in the real world soon looking for a career. It's great to see a brown girl doing what I hope to do in the future. Thank you for making these videos!

[@ShamyraC]

Aww.. I’m glad you found me! And thank you! That’s awesome.. Kudos to you 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I’m sure there will be plenty of job opportunities once you finish. Coding isn’t going anywhere and with your resume I’m sure it won’t take you long to get hired. You’re welcome! Thank you for supporting 💞

[@kekew.8283]

You are amazing! I recently was offered a job as a coding specialist. I was so nervous because I wasn’t sure if I would be able to do the job, your videos are a God send literally! Because of your videos I am more confident then ever! Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom

[@ShamyraC]

Aww, that means a lot… You are so welcome! Glad I could help! 🧡

[@mendieoreed3999]

You have been an amazing help, I have learning issues and remote learning is making it harder. I am in college Cincinnati University, I'm doing better because of how you explain things. Thank you

[@ShamyraC]

Thats awesome! I totally understand. Sometimes hearing it from someone else helps you understand better. I’m glad my videos are helping you! 🤗

[@ilanaveus2372]

Cant wait to graduate with My Associates in Medical coding I’ll definitely give updates when I do!💕

[@ShamyraC]

That's awesome! Can't wait to hear!

[@spiltrotten]

I'm so happy I found your videos! my professor talks super fast and doesn't like it when we use the back of the book :/ I honestly thought of dropping out

[@KickinItWithShun]

Thank you so much; This is really great info; I’m currently taking Anatomy & Physiology 2 n haven’t started in the actual coding courses yet, but this is getting me prepared 👍🏾👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@ShamyraC]

You’re welcome! Oh okay. Yes, these types of videos will be very beneficial. ☺️ Thanks for watching!

For some reason I can't find your other comment asking about billing the last case together 51597 and 58240. I checked for NCCI edits for both of these codes and found: This code pair represents procedures considered to be Mutually Exclusive. However, both services can be reimbursed if the appropriate modifier is appended. Meaning you can bill them together with the appropriate modifier but depending on the payor they may deny it. In order to bill them together it would depend on what the provider did. 51597 doesn't mention removal of the cervix or tubes/ovaries. So, if he did remove these and the patient had urethral malignancy then we'd bill it as 51597, 58240-XU [XU- Unusual non-overlapping service] 51597 first because of higher RVUs.

[@KickinItWithShun]

@@ShamyraC I did post a question abt the codes for this procedure but I accidentally deleted it trying to edit it...Thanks again for explaining more abt this procedure and coding 👍🏾👍🏾😉

Explained very well tq,we want more

[@laurengrippaldi7424]

Where are you getting these questions from? Thank you for the help!!

[@ShamyraC]

I got them from Amazon.

Is this gynecology exam for the specialty in this field? I will be taking the CPC exam in August .Also I was wondering if you could do a bubbling video and what you have marked in your manual. Also do you have to buy your own manuals each year and do you bubble each new book as well . I know lot of questions but I also think they can be great videos girl you have the ☕️ for this field and your professional as well I love how you teach .

[@ShamyraC]

Which question are you referring to? The patient seen in the gynecologist office for stress incont. or the last case? Both of these are gynecological procedures for OBGYN specialty but you will see procedures like this on the CPC because they ask you questions on every section/series of your CPT book (Anesthesia, Integumentary, Musculoskeletal, etc) I can definitely do an in depth video of what I have bubbled. The only sections I have bubbled will be related to OB/GYN only though. I don't bubble the other sections because I don't use them on a daily basis. I do not have to buy my manuals every year. My employer purchases them and mails them to my house. I do have to write/bubble all my notes in my new books every year. This usually takes about 2 days to complete lol. Thank you! I'm happy to share what I know. :)

[@iam_carlapretty1202]

@@ShamyraC the exam you mentioned?

[@ShamyraC]

@@iam_carlapretty1202 oh!!!! I'm thinking you're talking about a physical exam that would be performed in the gynecology office lol. Yes. There is a specialty certification exam for obstetrics & gynecology through the AAPC. You looked under specialty certifications on their website to find it.

Thank you , Shamyra. You are great on coding.

Thank you!

[@sweetpeaforever2009]

Hi. Thank you for your informal discussion on practice CPC question. However, I’m not sure if a modifier need to be added since it both nipple are been corrected. Please advise. Thank you so much.

[@ShamyraC]

That is correct. Are you referring to 19355 cpt no modifier was used. Not sure if I said to use one in the video. 😕 If I did, no you don’t need one. ☺️

[@iam_carlapretty1202]

Awesome video can you do a bubbling video of your manuals

[@ShamyraC]

Do you mean an in depth video of what I have bubbled? I did a video showing you guys what I have written/highlighted in my manuals. The only book I use the bubbling method is my CPT book.

[@RiverofLife95]

I'm doing my CPC exam this week! Ahhh!!!

[@ShamyraC]

Oh my gosh!! Good luck!! 💞

[@balkeesekp2273]

Thank you for the video...Could you do more like the last question, in that one 3 answers almost look like the same but with only one correct answer.. its easy to choose the wrong answer.

[@ShamyraC]

Yes, it is very easy to choose the wrong answer on the exams. I’ll watch the end of the video to see what the question is like and see if I find more similar. Thanks for supporting! 🤗

[@FloraNovax3]

Is the CPC exam just a bunch of case study questions like this? I read somewhere it was multiple choice as well. Is this accurate?

[@ShamyraC]

Yes and no. You’ll have a mix of case studies plus anatomy, medical terminology, coding guidelines, compliance and regulations.. Yes, it is multiple choice. ☺️

[@mckenzier4363]

im lost on the 23195 23470. May I ask why its both? and not just the 23470? I haven't taken the coding course yet I'm finishing anatomy but wanted to follow along and see what I'm in for.

[@ShamyraC]

23470 is only for the reconstruction and replacement of the implant for the shoulder joint. This code didn’t include the excision.
