About the Event

Part 1: Eligibility Requirements & Notice of Election

New and experienced hospice billers should periodically review eligibility requirements and recent reimbursement and election clarifications. This session will examine eligibility verifications and Election Statement and Addendum and Notice of Election requirements under recent regulatory updates. It will walk through the Late Notice of Election and the exceptions process of appeal. A comprehensive review of eligibility requirements, all aspects of dealing with Election Statement changes, and everything related to the Notice of Election will be included.

Part 2: Details of Medicare Claims Processing
Date: September 26, 2024

Recent years have brought an abundance of updates to hospice Medicare billing regulations. Accurate monthly claims and navigating around the edits and errors is key to timely, correct payments. This webinar will review the process step-by-step and provide real-world examples of how to successfully deal with the changes and effectively conduct physician billing. In addition, it will provide an overview of billing requirements for patients with a Medicare Advantage Plan participating in the VBID Model.

Part 3: Face-to-Face, Hospice Cap, Physician Billing & PEPPER
Date: October 3, 2024

Face-to-face requirements, physician billing, and the aggregate cap self-reporting requirement are just a few of the daily reimbursement-related challenges covered in this webinar. Specific physician billing codes for palliative care will also be addressed to expand your agency’s knowledge of palliative care reimbursement and the benefit for patients in the VBID Model. HIS transmission requirements and the increased penalty for noncompliance will also be covered, as will medical review denials and how PEPPER reports affect your hospice.
