Greetings!

Welcome to the latest addition of our ECP E-Newsletter, your source of timely industry news and updates to help keep you informed on matters that pertain to the healthcare industry and ECP. 
Coding Standard Change Coming October 2013
Make sure your reimbursements are not disrupted when coding standards change Oct. 1, 2013 by using a process recommended by CMS. Though the process itself is not required, CMS suggests this transition now, since all practices and payers will be using the new coding standard eventually.
