This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil
Let’s talk about adulting— actual adulting. Not just paying bills or keeping a houseplant alive, but the kind that involves emotional maturity, healthy boundaries, and conscious self-leadership. Because let’s be honest, most of us weren’t taught how to be fully functioning adults… and it shows. Joining us is Michelle Chalfant , licensed therapist turned holistic life coach, creator of The Adult Chair® model, and author of the new book The Adult Chair: Get Unstuck, Claim Your Power, and Transform Your Life . With millions reached through her podcast, coaching programs, and retreats, she’s here to walk us through the five pillars of being a healthy, grounded adult. Here’s the truth: being an adult isn’t about checking boxes or pretending you’re fine. It’s about owning your truth. Feeling your feelings. Practicing compassion without letting yourself off the hook. It’s about setting firm boundaries—with no need for justification—and recognizing that your triggers are not flaws, they’re clues. None of us were handed a guidebook for how to grow up emotionally. We inherited patterns from people who were figuring it out as they went. But what Michelle shares today is empowering: it’s never too late to unlearn what no longer serves you and become the adult you were meant to be. Whether you’re starting this work or knee-deep in your personal development era, this episode will meet you where you are—and help you move forward with clarity, self-trust, and strength.

Engaging with “bad actors” in medical billing can have serious consequences for both patients and healthcare providers. More and more providers are engaging without checking. Here’s what could happen. Terry discusses it all with examples. Legal repercussions: Providers can face hefty fines, civil or criminal charges, and even loss of their medical license for engaging in fraudulent billing. Financial impact: Audits, penalties, and required repayments can lead to significant financial losses for the provider’s practice. Reputational damage: Being associated with fraud can significantly damage a provider’s reputation, leading to decreased patient volume and referral issues.

In this episode, Terry challenges all medical professionals. What is your role in managing the patient experience? A lack of patient prep can lead to an incomplete encounter for the physician including excessive visits. It can also lead to leakage in all departments, including the RCM staff’s ability to perform their job. Terry offers her tips for accountability in all departments, starting with scheduling, to ensure the provider is “prepared” to see the patient.

Since the implementation of the No Surprises Act (NSA) in January 2022, out-of-network (OON) reimbursement has become a complex and resource-heavy challenge for hospital and health system revenue cycle leaders. Although designed to shield patients from unexpected medical bills, the legislation has placed continuous financial pressure on physician practices and hospital systems. It has led to delayed payments, operational burdens, and strained resources. In this episode of the CodeCast Podcast, Terry runs through how the NSA works not only for your RCM staff but also how she dealt with a personal “balance bill” for the win!

Medical necessity is defined as services that are reasonable and necessary for diagnosis or treatment of an illness or injury, or to improve the functioning of a malformed body member and are not excluded under another provision of the Medicare Program. Unfortunately, we have many practices trying to slide under the radar the experimental and/or investigational services that are considered not medically necessary or a covered benefit under most payers. Terry discusses the ins and outs of this practices and how to make sure you are not falling into a false claim trap.

The 2021/2023 E/M guideline revisions read: “The evaluation and/or treatment should be consistent with the likely nature of the condition.” Before this, the CPT® guidelines did not discuss medical necessity. Guidance was left to the payers, particularly Medicare, via the Social Security Act. CMS’s guidance doesn’t necessarily hold regulatory authority. However, it often reflects a new, shared understanding that medical services reported should meet documentation standards for level selection. Those standards should also appropriately indicate why the patient is visiting the provider, based on the presenting problems. This episode of the CodeCast echoes Terry’s insights that auditors, coders, and medical professionals focus on medical necessity first, then look to coding.

We all know the age-old question, “Where does it say that?” In this episode, Terry brings receipts, explaining it’s been this way since 2003: “Reviewing results of laboratory tests, phoning results to patients, filing such results, etc., are Medicare-covered services. Payment is included in the physician fee schedule payment for the evaluation and management (E/M) services to the patient. The CPT lists different levels of E and M services for both new and established patients and describes services that are included as E/M services. Such activities include obtaining, reviewing, and analyzing appropriate diagnostic tests.” Tune in to this episode for an in-depth discussion as Terry details trying to report a telehealth visit for giving test results may be considered double-dipping: and can get you into hot water!

Medical Coding provides standardized language that ensures all healthcare providers involved in a patient’s care are on the same page. The coder’s role is to be accurate, communicative, insightful and focused on a positive patient outcome. A patient’s financial health can impact their clinical health, and medical coders need to be recognized for their role in this process. Terry shares her thoughts on what makes a coder valuable, even if they are less visible than the providers.

More medical claims denials could be avoided if coders took the extra minute to make sure that the diagnoses that need to be linked to a specific line item were pre-billed. Also, when billing for diagnostic procedures on a complaint that moves to a minor, therapeutic, or surgical procedure, denials will happen when the diagnosis for the latter procedure is not updated. Terry covers all the issues with denials that can be avoided with a careful step back.

Terry is under the weather this week, so she gives us a quick segment on the E/M Data point, “independent interpretation”. See page 12 of CPT® under independent interpretation, the last sentence. “A test that is ordered and independently interpreted may count as both a test ordered and interpreted. ” Suppose you bill for the professional and technical components, meaning you are billing for the test ordered. In that case, you can’t double dip or get additional credit for the order, the review, or a professional interpretation. You can get credit for ordering a test and for an independent interpretation, as long as your documentation meets the criteria for what an independent interpretation is.

Some coders remain confused about Medically Unlikely Edits (MUEs) — but that’s about to change. In this episode, Terry discusses denials from Part B MACs for what you may think is an undetermined reason. However, a possibility is running up against MUEs. The edits, which are designed to prevent over-payments caused by serious billing errors, often confuse even veteran coders. Terry uncovers the truth about four aspects of these edits to ensure you’re not letting MUEs wreak havoc on your practice’s coding and reimbursement efforts.

The third element of MDM for E/M Services is “Risk of Complications and/or Morbidity or Mortality of Patient Management”. Many believe that only the risk in this element is how you level your E/M, but that is false. There are three elements to a E/M service when using MDM. There are several risks including the problems addressed and for the management and treatment for the patient. Terry discusses the difference and how to make sure you don’t over or under-code in the process.

The Electronic Medical Record (EMR) has many benefits over handwritten entries in a paper chart. EMR entries are always legible, dated, and timed. Patient information can be available at the point of care and remotely. Some EMR systems include computerized physician order entry and decision-support tools to improve patient care and safety. However, recent audits reflect that CDI can be compromised when copy-paste or pull-forward information is not updated or reviewed. Terry discusses the importance of the medical record’s integrity and ensuring your providers listen.

When auditing Annual Wellness Visits (AWV), is the concept still the same as preventive exams concerning modifier 25? The AWV does not include managing medications or managing conditions. However, the rules need to see medical necessity for the E/M on the same date with a -25 modifier. Remember, patients do not have a share of cost of AWV’s so if you add an E/M it comes out of their pocket too. Terry also adds more commentary for the audio-only Telehealth rules for 2025.

E/M Coding still has confusion when capturing “data points” elements. When deciding to give credit for either an independent interpretation (CAT 2) or a review of test results (CAT 1) is an often misunderstood component of the Medical Decision Making (MDM) table. Proper documentation of independent interpretation is required to impact the MDM, and consequently, reimbursement. Terry breaks down the compliance issues and best practices to make sure you are not over-coding. (Also, a shout out to Shannon DeConda and her excellent article on the topic on the NAMAS blog.)

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to make substantial progress toward the goal of making healthcare more personalized, predictive, preventative, and interactive. However, AI-based systems raise concerns regarding data security and privacy. Because health records are important and vulnerable, hackers often target them during data breaches. The absence of standard guidelines for the moral use of AI and ML (machine learning) in healthcare has only worsened the situation. There is debate about how far artificial intelligence (AI) may be utilized ethically in healthcare settings since there are no universal guidelines for its use. Therefore, maintaining the confidentiality of medical records is crucial. Terry scratches the surface and discusses some concerns about AI in healthcare predictive models and what to also look for as we continue to use AI scribes.

Many practices offer cash payment options to avoid insurance billing, hoping to reduce administrative burden or boost revenue. However, this practice of charging cash for services that could be billed to and covered by a patient’s insurance plan raises serious compliance concerns. Federal law and insurance contracts generally prohibit this practice because it undermines the healthcare payment system and can lead to regulatory violations. Terry discusses the compliance ramifications of this policy with a little health from a NAMAS article.
