Master OB/GYN Coding
Do not let your clinic fall behind!
The biggest disruption to obstetric billing in over thirty years took effect on January 1, 2027. The American Medical Association (AMA) completely retired the traditional global obstetric package. Familiar bundled codes have been permanently deleted. This shift changes attribution - how professional work is recognized and credited and creates an opportunity to report maternity care services in more detail. It impacts documentation, workflows, payer communication, revenue cycle management, and electronic health record templates. Obstetrical coding, billing, and clinical teams must be informed to document and report these services properly.
If your clinic falls behind in this transition, it faces immediate revenue drops and massive denial rates. This class gives you the tools, codes, and compliance strategies required to successfully navigate these historic changes.
The Core 2027 Maternity Changes You Must Master
- The Death of Global Bundling: Learn why 16+ global OB codes are being deleted and replaced with 12 new, highly granular codes.
- Four Distinct Phases of Care: Master the new structure that forces practices to separately track and bill Antepartum, Labor Management, Delivery, and Postpartum services.
- Shift to Encounter-Level E/M Billing: Discover how routine prenatal and postpartum visits will now be itemized using standard Evaluation and Management (E/M) codes paired with specific modifiers (like the TH modifier).
- Brand New Labor Management Codes: Understand how to calculate and report labor management by calendar day, specifically differentiating between straightforward and complex care.
- Payer Divergence & Compliance: Learn how to handle the administrative nightmare of commercial payers adopting the new CPT structure while CMS proposes its own complex maternity G-codes.
Essential OB/GYN Coding Foundations Included
- Chapter 15 ICD-10-CM Mastery: Confidently navigate O codes, sequencing rules, and trimester-specific complications.
- Surgical Unbundling: Learn exactly when modifiers (like -25, -57, and -59) are clinically justified to capture extra revenue safely.
- New Procedure Tracking: Get step-by-step guidance on brand new 2027 codes for third- and fourth-degree laceration repairs, uterine tamponades, and post-cesarean hysterectomies.
