Remind me, again, which of the almost 2-dozen 'telemedicine' codes can only be done by a physician (vs. a qualified non-physician)? Which ones can't be used if an E&M has been billed in the last seven days? Or if a decision is made to schedule an...
Every year, often with the help of the SOAPMites, I assemble a calendar of all the practice management (and/or just interesting) talks at the upcoming NCE so that I don't have to race around on my phone trying to figure out when and where they are. I...

If you prefer video, you catch up on their YouTube channel.
