About the Event
The CMS 2024 Hospice Final Rule updates the hospice wage index, payment rates, and aggregate cap amount. This three-part series of master classes takes an in-depth look at updates to Medicare billing and reimbursement requirements for hospices.
Daily reimbursement challenges — face-to-face encounters, physician billing, aggregate cap self-reporting — will be addressed in this class. Also scheduled to be discussed: Hospice Item Set (HIS) transmission requirements, the increased penalty for noncompliance, medical review denials, and how Program for Evaluating Payment Patterns Electronic Reports (PEPPER) affect your hospice. We’ll also review: Physician billing codes for palliative care and the palliative care benefit for patients in the Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) Model.
