Separately Ticketed Event. This session is presented as a pre-recorded on-demand presentation.
In college, therapists and assistants get very little education and training in the business and compliance aspect of outpatient physical, occupational and/or speech therapy services. If they do, it is usually limited to the basics of CPT coding, documentation and perhaps, some billing. This webinar will focus on topics that “veteran” therapists and assistants as well as recent graduates may not know and/or completely understand. Topics discussed include, but are not limited to: Hospice, Medicare Advantage, MPPR, QMB Program, CQ modifier and Medigap Plans, ABN and Participating versus Non-Participating Medicare provider.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to
Discuss how CMS determines payment for each CPT code.
Identify when it is and is not appropriate to issue an ABN to a Medicare beneficiary.
Recite when you can bill Medicare for outpatient therapy for a Medicare beneficiary in hospice.
