Day 2 | Wednesday, June 17, 2026 | Registration: 8:00 am – 9:00 am CST | Workshop: Time TBD | Hospice Reimbursement: Melinda A. Gaboury
Reimbursement issues do not start or stop with your billing department. Hospice Eligibility requirements, while seemingly routine, remain one of the leading reasons for denial under medical review. This all-day session will take you through the documentation required for the patient to be hospice eligible, work through the overall impact of HQRP, will highlight the 2027 Proposed Hospice rule with billing updates and provide some deep insight into details surrounding Medical Review and filing Appeals. This workshop will lay a concrete foundation for hospice billers, and any hospice staff that need to more effectively understand the Medicare documentation and billing requirements. Be among the most highly trained hospice professionals on all things related to Hospice Reimbursement.
