About the webinar

Accurate PCS coding for Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) starts with a solid understanding of anatomy and surgical intent. In this session, we’ll break down thoracic anatomy, explore the objectives behind common VATS procedures, and explain how these factors guide the selection of correct root operations. We’ll also review key PCS guidelines applicable to VATS, giving you the tools to code with confidence and accuracy. By the end of this session, you’ll have the knowledge needed to accurately code VATS procedures every time.
