Current Version: v2025

The NAMAS E/M Auditing Training and Reference Guide (v2025) is a vital tool for individuals engaged in evaluation and management (E/M) auditing. Recently updated to reflect the most current standards, this guide offers in-depth education and practical resources for auditors, coders, and physicians who are dedicated to documentation accuracy and compliance excellence.

This manual is widely used in day-to-day auditing and serves as the core resource for our NAMAS E/M Auditing Bootcamp. It is thoughtfully structured to provide practical, how-to guidance on auditing provider documentation across all places and types of service. It is also a valuable reference for those involved in provider education.

Please Note: The accompanying workbook—designed to reinforce learning through practice questions and sample encounters—is no longer available for separate purchase. It is now exclusively offered as part of our live bootcamp training experience.

Key Features:

• Foundational Standards:
  Covers documentation requirements across all settings, with emphasis on the appropriate and inappropriate use of EMR/EHR tools in creating compliant documentation.

• Medical Necessity:
  Features a dedicated section that defines medical necessity and explains its critical role in determining E/M services.

• Comprehensive Guidance:
  Walks users through the latest E/M guidelines, offering clarity on interpretive gray areas and presenting best practices that support informed decision-making—without prescribing a one-size-fits-all solution.

Who Should Use This Guide:

• Auditors and coding professionals seeking to enhance E/M auditing expertise

• Teams looking for a shared resource for education sessions or chapter events

• Individuals preparing for the Certified Evaluation and Management Auditor (CEMA) exam
