This webinar explores the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in ENT documentation, coding, and revenue cycle operations with a focus on audit risk, coding accuracy, and reimbursement integrity. Attendees will review how AI generated documentation, automated coding tools, and payer algorithms are impacting ENT practices, including concerns related to medical necessity, cloned documentation, modifier usage, surgical reporting, and E/M services. The session will also discuss where AI may improve workflow efficiency versus where human oversight remains critical to reducing denials, compliance exposure, and audit vulnerability.
