WHEN IS YOUR CHIRO PATIENT A NEW PATIENT?
If you saw your pre-accident patient within 3 years of the accident, you must use CPT Code 99213 or 99214 for 90% of moderate to severe accident cases. Otherwise, if it's a real "new" patient you would use CPT Code 99203-99204.
Our thanks to Dr. Kevin Cressey of Pasadena.

Zurich Insurance starts using robots to decide personal injury claims
|
|
Tom de Swaan bragged to Reuters that Zurich recently introduced Artificial Intelligence into deciding personal injury claims. He claimed it cut their "processing" time from hours to seconds. Moreover, he claimed it "saves 40,000 work hours. We absolutely plan to expand the use of this type of AI [artificial intelligence]."
"Accuracy has improved. Each new claim leads to further development and improvements, "says de Swaan.
Japanese insurer Fukoku Mutual began implementing AI in January replacing 34 staff members in a move that would save 1.3 million a year.

This is the latest feature of Colossus. Fewer adjusters to negotiate with and more robots to "discusst" key issues with.
Such "negotiations" will be fruitless. Soon, insurers will want to hire robotic defense attorneys---although many defense attorneys already act like automatons.
