Participants will gather in Dallas, Boston, DC and Orlando for a thorough review of all of the 2013 CPT® code changes that the American Medical Association has planned for next year.

The conference will address all added, revised and deleted codes for 2013, including clarifications for important specialty specific CPT® coding changes.  Guideline, modifier and E/M code updates will also be covered.  All attendees can earn 7 CEUs from AAPC, AHIMA and AHCAE.  For those who can't travel to any of the regional events, there is a live online workshop taking place on December 12 and an E-learning course after December 21.
