In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Ray discuss the troubling expansion of automatic E/M downcoding by payers—and what your practice can do about it. Mark explains which payers are leading this trend, how to identify if your claims are being affected, and practical steps to reverse these denials and protect revenue. Then, the team unpacks the recent news about UnitedHealthcare dropping certain Medicare Advantage plans, what it really means, and how to prepare your front desk and billing staff for potential patient coverage changes. Stay informed, stay proactive!
