December 2023

Dear All,​​​​​​​

This past October Sarah Leath and I hosted a two-day seminar “360 Review of Your Accounts Receivable” to a sold-out room with people coming from 18 states!  We reviewed the coding and billing guidelines for OMS, as well as ways to use your software to help you with your A/R process. We had a blast!  If you were not able to attend, please keep a lookout for our 2024 dates in upcoming newsletters.  With that said, it’s time to close out 2023 and look forward to 2024!

Below you will find some of the new codes that will be effective in CDT as of January 1, 2024.   Make sure to add them to your practice management software and use them in upcoming treatment plans having procedures done in 2024.  If you are doing dental sleep medicine, there are lots of new codes here for you to review:

D0396: 3D printing of a 3D dental surface scan

D6089: accessing and retorquing loose implant screw – per screw

D7284: excisional biopsy of minor salivary glands

D7939: indexing for osteotomy using dynamic robotic assisted dynamic navigation

D9954: fabrication and delivery of oral appliance therapy (OAT) morning repositioning device

D9955: oral appliance therapy (OAT) titration visit

D9956: administration of home sleep apnea test

D9957: screening for sleep related breathing disorders

Also, keep in mind that as of 2024 the ADA will have a new claim form. Be sure to check it out and contact your carriers and software vendors regarding implementation.

Lastly, as most of you know, Terri Bradley Consulting will be merging with Sarah Leath so you will find future newsletters and mailings coming from OMS Powerhouse Consulting. Same me, and same great info with the add-on of all of Sarah’s knowledge and tools from her toolbox!

In the meantime, Keep Calm and Code On!
