| Speaker Deborah A. Randall J.D. Healthcare Aging Services and Telehealth Advocacy; Consulting; Strategy discussed how dealing with and staying on top of compliance issues comes with the territory for hospice executives. And each year the regulations and compliance requirements become more challenging. Whether the specific issue surrounds dealing with the new Medicare Recovery Audit Contractor review program Medicare administrative contractors fiscal intermediary issues additional documentation requests an OIG audit or Heaven forbid a Medicaid Fraud Unit review you have a lot on your compliance plate today. While hospice executive directors and other senior administrators are aware of what the regulations are hospice staff may not always be fully informed or compliant. That’s because staff training and regulatory compliance are the two most difficult and labor-intensive responsibilities for administrators today. AGENDA: * Understanding first reviews: ADRs FI/MAC denials * What’s new for appeals under the Revised Medicare Appeal process * How to prepare for probe audits * Progressive corrective and ACE actions * RAC reviews * Your rights and response to benefit integrity actions * Samples and Future Predictions of OIG audits * Medicaid Fraud Unit reviews * Question and answer session |
