When treating diabetic patients, getting paid EVERY dollar you’re due is essential.
Regardless of your specialty, diabetic patients get seen more often, and take up a higher percentage of your staff and provider time. So, unless you’re careful, it’s easy to lose money on these patients when providing them the care they need. But you can improve the reimbursement you receive for your diabetic patients – with a little help.
During this 60-minute online training session, expert coding professional and trainer, Gloryanne Bryant, RHIA, CDIP, CCS, CCDS, AHIMA Approved ICD-10-CM/PCS Trainer, will walk you through exactly how you can accurately and ethically improve the reimbursement you receive for the diabetic patient services you offer.
Here is just a few of the step-by-step, practical diabetes coding advice you’ll receive during this 60-minute training:
- Master alpha and tabular to code cellulitis and diabetes more accurately to speed pay-up
- Overcome nuances of 2018 ICD-10-CM “with” diabetes modification to head off hefty denials
- Uncover how to more correctly code secondary diabetes mellitus to avoid audits
- Conquer complaint coding for use of insulin or oral hypoglycemic drugs
- Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program: Properly apply HCPCS “G” Codes
- And so much more…
IMPORTANT: This diabetes coding training session is designed for those coding professionals that have a base understanding of how to accurately code this condition. This is NOT a basic coding course.
Diabetes affects 23.1 million people in the US at a cost of $316 billion a year. Considering this, Medicare is sitting up and taking notice. That means these claims are on their radar, and any missteps on your part could jet you to the top of their audit list – which is certainly NOT where you want to be.
Don’t risk it. Get the expert diabetes coding advice you need to more accurately code your claims. You’ll decrease your audit chances, and increase your ability to get accurately and ethically paid for more of the services you provide to this chronic population. Don’t wait, order today.

It was awesome. Really got a better understanding of DM and how it relates to other diagnoses the patient has. The sample questions were ones I found interesting. I really enjoyed it.
