LIVE AUDIO CONFERENCE

If you haven't dealt with an ADR, expect to -- hospices are increasingly being asked to justify that patients are eligible. 

If your hospice has ever been subject to a probe edit or an ADR, you know the time, energy, and aggravation that goes along with them. So your cash flow doesn't suffer, get armed to deal with them effectively by attending this 1-hour audio event with expert Mary Michal. You'll understand the ADR and probe edit process and get the tools you need to properly respond to them. Plus, you'll learn the essentials for appealing claim denials for rightful reimbursement.

Here's what you will learn:

  • Protect yourself: Documentation musts -- and how to enforce documentation excellence.
  • Act fast: What every hospice should do at the onset of a probe edit -- even if you aren't in the wrong.
  • Respond to ADRs the right way. Key elements to include in summary letters. 
  • An easily fixable ADR and probe culprit: How to avoid technical denials in your hospice.
  • Get confident with appeals: Know the process and get results.
  • Exhausted all of your appeal rights up to the Administrative Law Judge? Here's what to do next. 

Have additional questions? You have the floor with the speaker during an interactive Q&A.

Who should attend? Hospice CEOs, CFOs, COOs, compliance officers, medical directors and clinical directors.

Your registration includes:

  • Flexible enrollment. Scheduling conflict? No problem. This session is also available on CD.
  • Expert answers to your tough questions during the interactive Q&A period.
