Presenting Author(s): Dr. Roger C. Rampling, MD, FRCPC

Date and time: 22 Mar 2020 from 09:00 to 10:00

Location: Wildrose Salon C  Floor Map

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand profession-wide and section-specific fee codes for psychiatric practice.
  2. Understand the nature of care involved in each of the relevant fee items.
  3. Submit appropriate claims for psychiatric services provided.

Abstract:

Psychiatrists in Alberta are largely paid by submitting claims for Fee Codes from the Alberta Health Schedule of Medical Benefits.
There are general codes available to all physicians, and codes specific to psychiatric care. These definitions both support and
constrain the elements of care that are compensable in Alberta. Billing appropriately provides financial incentives for psychiatrists and
available care for patients. Attendees can expect to optimize familiar and better understand unfamiliar aspects of the fee schedule.
