The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code set is foundational to innovative care models and payment reforms to achieve high-quality and equitable patient care. In addition to being used for billing, the CPT code set can also provide foundational data used to design novel health care delivery models, and then assess the associated savings and quality improvement.
When new value-based care models emerge, the transparent and evidence-based CPT Editorial Panel process provides coding solutions that adequately respond to the needs of physicians, health professionals, health systems, policymakers and payers.
In this webinar, explore how the CPT code set supports value-based care through cost and quality measures, digitally enabled care and emerging technologies, and coordination of patient care.
