There are several payers that have adopted CMS National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) edits and have implemented them into their claim scrubbers, such as Blue Cross and UnitedHealthcare. Due to the fact that NCCI edits are based on AMA CPT coding conventions and standard medical and surgical...

Coding Consult: Get the most out of modifiersFred Chafin
In a mouse model of GEFSP carrying the scn1a mutation, mutant alleles carrying coding and noncoding variants in sodium (scn1a, scn2a) andpotassium channels(kcnq2) have been shown to have a deleterious effect onseizureseverity, while the presence of a mutant (scn8a) allele restores normalseiz...

The approach is flexible also from a protein engineering perspective, as the proteins can be modified by placing TurboID within terminal coding exons or internally within introns using splicing sequences33. Importantly, because this strategy uses AAV transduction of readily available Cas9-transgenic mice...
coding sequences, and gene regulation11. Germline CNVs overlapping theBRCA1andBRCA2gene loci are associated with the pathogenesis of breast cancer, accounting for <5% of known pathogenic variants in these genes (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar). Multiple studies have utilised a genome-wide...
Huntington disease (HD [MIM: 143100]) is a dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder involving a constellation of motor, cognitive, and behavioral manifestations caused by inheriting an expanded (>35) CAG trinucleotide repeat in the coding sequence of HTT that lengthens the encoded polyglutamine ...
To test this hypothesis, we created a list of 216 genes with a strong positive selection signature. We next screened for these genes in the long tail of each cancer type (up to rank 100), ultimately defining a “tumor type-driver gene” (TTDG) landscape composed of 511 TTDG connections ...
The present invention relates to a Selective Glucocorticoid Receptor Modulator (SEGRM), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for use in the treatment of impaired skin wound healing in a subject, an in vitro method for identifying a subject suffering from impaired skin wound healing to be...
