4A | When Do I Code That? Cracking the Case on Diagnosis Reporting

Not every documented condition belongs on the claim. But some that are left off should be there. In this session, we’ll walk through challenging real-world cases to decide when additional diagnoses should be reported and why it matters. We’ll also examine how AI-assisted coding impacts decision-making and where human expertise remains essential.
