Episode Synopsis

Some coders remain confused about Medically Unlikely Edits (MUEs) — but that’s about to change.
In this episode, Terry discusses denials from Part B MACs for what you may think is an undetermined reason. However, a possibility is running up against MUEs.
The edits, which are designed to prevent over-payments caused by serious billing errors, often confuse even veteran coders.
Terry uncovers the truth about four aspects of these edits to ensure you’re not letting MUEs wreak havoc on your practice’s coding and reimbursement efforts.
