[@ShaKinsey1]

Thanks for watching. Best wishes on your coding journey!

[@stonecoldplyr3080]

Hello everyone and tyvm for the helpful insight to the digestive system and other areas you cover. Tools are exactly what we need to be productive coders and I appreciate all the knowledge I can use toward my successful career in healthcare.

[@ingerjackson3809]

Mrs.Jay was born to teach this never do i get a wrong code with her instruction 🙏🏾

[@melindamitchell1296]

I HAVE TO SAY THIS, SO I AM SAYING IT IN CAPS. YOU GUYS ARE GREAT TEACHERS. LOVE IT!!!!!!

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

Wow, thank you!

[@noemimendez5448]

Thank you for sharing this information 😊❤

[@ShaKinsey1]

Thank you for stopping by!

[@karenquinn7638]

Mrs. Jay you and your team do a great job helping us understand medical coding. I would love to understand more of the concepts of CPT modifiers, and ICD-10-CM coding. I hope to improve my CPC Exam score from 58% to at least 80% or higher. Thanks or all you do. Please more current cases with 2024.

[@cinnamonbk1186]

You will pass the next time around, continue to pray, binge-watch the AMCI videos, and practice:)

AMCI Instructor Mrs. Jay I am now CPC CRC and started from this month CCS. When I start watching your video I recollect all memories from the class. Your video is superb and very informative to those who are thinking to get CPC go for it . I am sure everyone will learn so much from the very lovely and caring instructor.

[@AMCICurriculumDirectorMrsJay]

[@TruptiRana]

AMCI Instructor Mrs. Jay I want to talk to you first. If you allow me to talk let me know when is the good time?

[@AMCICurriculumDirectorMrsJay]

I LEARN A LOT OF THINGS THOSE WE DON'T NO , THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS SESSIONS

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

Glad to help!

[@AMCICurriculumDirectorMrsJay]

Hello Everyone: Are you ready to learn about Digestive System Coding? I hope to see you at 12 Noon Eastern.

[@fewinn863]

Mrs Jay your wonderful. I just wish I found you sooner. But you know what I’m sharing it to people I know. I will pass . You are all awesome 👏 Yay!

[@AMCICurriculumDirectorMrsJay]

This is reminder to stay until the end of the presentation for instructions on how to register for the drawing for an AMCI lecture series scholarship (View all of AMCI's private Lectures)

I m just loving this

[@drjavedkhan3032]

very very interesting and helpful, very thanks

[@jeanniealdrich9764]

Great Teaching!!

[@DarkAngel684]

For the pause at 2:00:10, this is a bit confusing because the case doesn't state that the appendix was indeed removed. It goes on to say the doctor found the appendix not to be ruptured nor hot. I know we should never assume, but in this case, I first thought that the appendectomy wasn't carried out.

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

I know I am a year late, but an emergent appendectomy was carried out in this scenario. Thank you for your question.

[@brendawhiteside3785]

GREAT CONTENT

[@danielvicky8514]

THANK YOU MAM......

[@leahoh4]

The scenario at about 1:39:00 to 1:45:47, I don't understand why the hydrocelectomy was not coded. At least in my 2021 book, the answer would be 49496 which isn't listed, but even in the scenario explanation, the hydrocele isn't mentioned at all

[@ShaKinsey1]

Please submit your coding question to the contact information listed in the description box.

[@NoshabaQureshi-sz8jt]

thank you so much, I have learned a lot.

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

[@sanjeevkumar1082]

45378 CPT code is separate procedure code How u code together with 44204 *# (As per the CPT guidelines separate procedure codes we can't code with any another codes)

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

Please advise where the time stamp of the scenario is located. I don't see it. Also, you can code a separate procedure with another procedure as long as the procedures are not integral/related. If you do append modifier 59.

[@sanjeevkumar1082]

Okay thank you Mr.Jay

[@joyliu2438]

@@AMCIMedicalCoding Mrs. Jay, my CPT book 2023 version P368 'Colonoscopy Decision Tree' if I choose Beyond splenic flexure, but not to the cecum, 45378-53; if I choose 'To Cecum, 45378, No modifier.', So I still don't understand if we need to put 59 there. Thank you!

[@oceanic9776]

Hey mrs tracy,In Mary scenario ,how could we code seprate procedure while colectomy is also related to colonoscopy in that question. How could we report both of them

[@saemae1169]

Same concern here. I don’t get it

[@violetapajares542]

I put first 43235 but I void it and then I put43239 with biopsy. Why the instructor use the 2 codes together?

[@violetapajares542]

If 43235 is separate procedure

[@Sonia-Batista]

Hi, I chose C at first, but changed my answer to D because C is not only coding for the standard backbench work. but it's also coding for arterial anastomoses. the scenario says venous anastomosis, not arterial anastomoses. this was not explained in the video. Would you kindly explained this part to me, please. I appreciate it. thanks.

[@VikaVish2506]

HI I THINK ARTERIAL ANASTOMOSIS IS BUNDELED IN BACKBENCH WORK BUT HERE THEY DID STANTERED BACKBENCH WORK & ADDITIONALLY VENOUS ANASTOMOSIS SO HOPE WE NEED TO CODE BOTH

[@elenakudriavceva5998]

Do you have this lecture with version of 2022?
