For healthcare professionals to maximize medical billing collection, CPT code accuracy is especially important. If podiatry CPT codes are not reported accurately in the billing process, the claim could be denied or the payment may be delayed. To maximize your collections, it’s therefore important to stay on top of the latest CPT code developments.
