"So much is communicated in the U.A.E. medical community via word of mouth. Sometimes, it is difficult to believe with 100% confidence that we are applying the correct changes to reflect what is needed for our hospital. That is not an issue with CPT codes. Fortunately, as new CPT codes are added or modified to reflect what our doctors are doing, the AMA supplies guidance that we can rely on as the source of truth."
Linda Jewell ( (retired) Sr. Manager Audit and Compliance, Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi (CCAD) )
