Vascular Coding Updates - Webinar

Includes a Live Web Event on 01/07/2026 at 12:00 PM (CST)

$79 |2026 Vascular Coding Update: Lower Extremity Revascularization, TEVAR, and More! Get ready—2026 ushers in a sweeping overhaul of vascular coding. The lower extremity revascularization code set for angioplasty, stenting, and atherectomy has been completely revamped, with 46 brand-new codes (yes, 46!) plus a dedicated set for distal interventions. These changes bring significant new coding and billing opportunities you won’t want to miss. But that’s not all—six new TEVAR codes are also on the horizon, including the long-awaited option for thoracic branch endograft (TBE) coding. Join Teri Romano, BSN, MBA, CMDP, a nationally recognized vascular coding expert and KZA consultant, as she breaks down these sweeping changes. As a faculty member of the Society for Vascular Surgery’s national coding course, Teri brings unmatched expertise to help you navigate this critical transition. This early, in-depth update will ensure you and your team are fully prepared when these changes take effect on January 1, 2026.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
• Accurately identify and apply the new 2026 CPT codes for lower extremity revascularizations
• Recognize and correctly use the new TEVAR codes, including thoracic branch endograft (TBE) coding
• Apply best-practice documentation standards to support accurate coding, billing, and compliance

Why Attend:
With 2026 bringing major changes to vascular coding, preparation is critical. New codes mean updated processes, revised charge sheets, and provider education—all essential to capturing every dollar of reimbursement from day one. Don’t risk denials or lost revenue by falling behind. Join us to ensure your team is ready when these changes take effect on January 1, 2026.

$375 | This intensive 6 module webinar series covers the most critical issues for this unique specialty. It’s packed with the knowledge and tools providers and their staff need to understand payor policies, get paid accurately, and improve the bottom line.

Power Up Your Interventional Pain Management Coding Series

$375

6.5 hours in total

This course is accredited for 5.5 CEUs until 03/30/2026

Pain management is a complex field, and providers face intense scrutiny from many payors.

Whether performed in-office or in the ASC, most pain procedures are subject to detailed and restrictive coverage policies. Physicians who remain unaware of these policies risk denials, revenue loss, and potential audits and paybacks.

This intensive 6 module Webinar series covers the most critical issues for this unique specialty. It’s packed with the knowledge and tools providers and their staff need to understand payor policies, get paid accurately, and improve the bottom line.

Using examples of payor coverage policy samples for pain treatment, we will show you how to incorporate payor policy guidance into your daily practice. You will learn how to dissect the clinical criteria to create the must-have documentation to justify coverage.

You will get an overview of ICD-10-CM coding for pain management to support medical necessity for the services you provide and ensure you are reporting your diagnoses accurately.

You’ll get an update on E/M services and review case studies to sharpen your documentation skills. Office or outpatient services, Consultations, Emergency Department, and Hospital E/M services will be reviewed.

Medicare rules for Advanced Practice providers will be discussed including, incident-to, direct billing, and split shared services will be discussed.

You’ll learn interventional procedure coding for spine, joint, soft tissue, tendon, nerve block injections, PRP and more, and changes to interventional procedure codes.

We will address reimbursement essentials such as Medicare rules—including bundling and CCI edits.

Who Should Attend?

Anesthesiologists, neurosurgeons, orthopedists, Pain management practitioners and PM&R physicians who deliver interventional pain services and procedures. Other providers, managers, billers, and coders who work in pain management, PM&R, and orthopedic or neurosurgical practices that treat pain would also benefit from this webinar series.

Learning Objectives

As a result of attending this webinar series, attendees will be able to:

Define documentation risk areas and understand how to avoid them.
Choose appropriate codes and modifiers for interventional procedures for spine, joint, soft tissue, tendon, and nerve block injections.
Comply with pain coding and payor rules.
Apply use of interventional pain coverage policies to the reimbursement workflow.
Apply coding rules and principles for reporting E/M and in office procedures for services to avoid audits.
Review ICD-10-CM coding related to pain management.
Correctly bill for Advance Practice Provider (APP) Medicare services.
