A couple of days ago I received a link to the new HCPCS rates for 2007! I'm one of those guys who loves spreadsheets and databases but, while I found the information interesting, it were very difficult to use.

I'm curious to see if having this info in a database would help. I have imported the file and created an easy to use database that allows you to:
1. Enter any code and immediately see the description and all rates
2. You can do a lookup by word in the description field to help find a code that you need.

I'd be interested to hear if anyone could benefit from this. To access it, go to www.gottrys.com/resources/ and click on the HCPCS link. You will be opening a WinZip file from which you can download or save an Access file.

The first form shows Arizona rates (as I'm in Arizona). If you know Access at all, you can change it to replace the Arizona rate with your states rate by changing properties. The second form in the file allows you to see the rates for all states.

I'd appreciate any feedback!

Thanks
