I won't post the direct link so as not to appear to be spamming, but you can find it by under "Psychiatric Code Coach" on any search engine.<br /><br />There are also lots of links to resources on the Maine Association of Psychiatric Physicians site (an APA DB, but 99% of the content is public), under the resources tab.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />M Price MDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-22789150965509811432012-12-09T22:43:18.512-05:002012-12-09T22:43:18.512-05:00Anon, It looks like you are right.

I think there may be an error in the final tutorial for add-on timed psychotherapy codes, which are given as 90822 (30 minute) and 90866 (45 minute). I believe they should be 90833 and 90836. The 90838 for 60 minute is accurate.

Oh, and for the edition being published for PCPs and other non psychiatric providers to use? Really will advance psychiatric providers, yeah, right!<br /><br />Hey colleagues, if you can't see the writing on the wall, let me read it for you:<br /><br />GET A REAL JOB, YOU ARE SUPERFLUOUS!<br /><br />Sorry if this insults the authors of this blog, but, to anyone who is a psychiatrist and still belongs to the APA, WHY!? If this is representation, how many stab wounds in your back do you tolerate!?!?<br /><br />You read it here first, if not already figured it out for yourself, private practice psychiatry is basically dead by 2016 unless you are working such a niche field, no one else can do it and you have a patient population that can sustain you. Congrats if this is true.<br /><br />If you are me, maybe working in a bar may have a realistic expectation by that time frame!!!<br /><br />Cynical, nah, that is too optimistic a term!Joel Hassman, MDhttp://cantmedicatelife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-53073481128636642612012-12-06T20:20:00.855-05:002012-12-06T20:20:00.855-05:00I had a comment I was gonna post but I think it...I had a comment I was gonna post but I think it's opening up at least one big can o'worms so I think not.<br /><br />I'm having enough of a hard time being able to stand myself, my behaviors, failures etc. lately so I don't wanna get piled on.<br /><br />Hrm, I sound really whiny (like I say, I'm having a hard time standing mysel lately, but it's hard to fight everythingand improve when a ton of curve balls are hitting you and knocking you over. I am trying though).<br /><br />I hope the CPT thing gets sorted fast cause it sounds like it could impact people just awfully.Sarebearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09208596053319110470noreply@blogger.com
