HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today I'm excited to have Dr. Jane Smith with us, an expert in occupational therapy billing and coding. We're going to discuss the "Certified Professional in Occupational Therapy Billing and Coding" course. So, Jane, what inspired you to create this program? GUEST: Hi, thanks for having me.

Telehealth services have grown significantly due to the pandemic, leading to new billing and coding complexities. Staying updated with these changes is crucial. HOST: Yes, it certainly is.
