Coding with Confidence: Navigating Critical Care in the ED Webinar

This webinar is designed to remove the confusion and help ED clinicians and coders accurately identify, document, and code critical care services with confidence.

Through real-world examples and case-based instruction, attendees will walk away with practical tools to support compliant, high-quality documentation.

Critical care services are often undercoded in the emergency department—not because they’re rare, but because they’re misunderstood. Many ED providers deliver critical care-level interventions without realizing the encounter meets the threshold for critical care billing.

What you’ll learn:

• The true definition of critical care (and why discharge status doesn’t matter)

• What counts — and what doesn’t — toward the 30-minute time requirement

• Documentation tips that support both compliance and revenue integrity

• Case walkthroughs: Which scenarios qualify?
