Description: AACVPR members are often responsible for coding pulmonary rehabilitation services for insurance reimbursement or sharing the coded information with their hospital's billing department. To help aid this process, we are holding a virtual, workshop that'll give our community the opportunity to connect with experts, ask questions and stay up to date on changes in Medicare payment. This course will provide attendees with current information regarding billing and coding best practices for pulmonary rehabilitation professionals.

Learning Objectives:

1. Discuss coverage rules and regulations
2. Discuss referral-to-charge key considerations
3. Summarize the key elements of an ITP and how to navigate an audit
4. Identify coverage and regulation resources
5. Describe real-life application of tools/resources

Topics Covered in this Webinar: Electrophysiology of sinus rhythm and calculating HR, Using laddergrams for arrhythmia analysis, Complex cornucopia (early and late), Heart block, and Supraventricular arrhythmias.

Webinar Description: This webinar will begin the discussion of arrhythmias, starting with the electrophysiology of normal sinus rhythm and the technique of calculating heart rate both for regular and irregular rhythms. The technique of using laddergrams for arrhythmia analysis will be described and these techniques will then be used to illustrate and diagnose ectopic complexes and heart block. This webinar will conclude with the interpretation of supraventricular arrhythmias (SVT/MAT/Afib/Aflutter).

Webinar Learning Objectives:
At the completion of this webinar, attendees will be able to:

1. Discuss basic electrophysiology for the cardiac rehab specialist.
2. Learn the proper calculation of heart rate in the presence of arrhythmias.
3. Recognize a variety of supraventricular arrhythmias, ectopic complexes and AV block.
4. Learn how to construct a laddergram to better understand the mechanism of arrhythmias.

A recording will be made available following the webinar. There is a 60 day viewing window for the recording.

Description: This webinar, recorded in 2024, will discuss the evolving evidence that exercise-based pulmonary (p)rehabilitation should be considered essential in optimizing functional capacity, enhancing health-related quality-of-life, decreasing post-operative complications, and improving outcomes in lung transplant candidates and recipients. Based on clinical practice and giving case examples where appropriate, it will detail the critical importance of a team-based approach in optimizing the (p)rehabilitation of such patients.   

Learning Objectives:

1. Summarize the evidence that exercise-based pulmonary (p)rehabilitation can optimize functional capacity, enhance health-related quality-of-life, and improve outcomes in lung transplant candidates and recipients. 
2. Identify the prevalence and prognostic significance of frailty in lung transplant candidates and recipients. 
3. Recognize the practical considerations for the management of pre- and post-operative complications and the need for education on indefinite self-monitoring in lung transplant recipients.
