CPT® and RBRVS 2010 Annual Symposium
The only three-day event where you hear and learn direct from the source of CPT— the AMA!
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Nov. 11-13, 2009
The American Medical Association (AMA) invites you to join hundreds of your colleagues in meeting and learning from the experts on Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®), the Resource-Based Relative Value Scale (RBRVS) and Medicare payment policy. The symposium faculty includes members of the CPT Advisory Committee, CPT Editorial Panel, Relative Value Scale Update Committee (RUC), Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and contractor medical directors (CMD’s). Each presenter will discuss in detail many of the significant changes to CPT 2010 codes and descriptors, as well as 2010 payment policy and relative value unit (RVU) changes to the Medicare physician payment schedule.
