Coding Advocacy

The AANEM works with national organizations to shape reimbursement policies and advocates for its members through its involvement in the American Medical Association's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and Relative Value Scale Update Committees (RUC).

The AANEM Policy Department routinely reviews and comments on Correct Coding Initiative (CCI) edits, physician work values, and proposed and final rules issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS).

These activities help ensure that CPT codes and reimbursement rates accurately reflect the work performed by electrodiagnostic physicians.
