About the Event
This session will take agencies through the winding road of Medicare scrutiny. While billing the Medicare benefit and getting paid relatively easy, there is always a risk of things being reviewed at some point and what you can do to avoid denials. Participants will be able to define the levels of Medical Review that are currently active including: UPIC, SMRC, MAC ADR, and RAC. We will review how to respond to any level of medical review that may occur. This session will also discuss PEPPER reports and other data analysis that agencies will need to review to ensure that their risk from medical review is limited. Do not be caught in the position of believing that everything is just okay or that the Public Health Emergency is a shield from medical review. Attendees will take away information that will assist in assuring that your hospice truly is accurately documenting.
