Virtual Workshop Overview

 This two-day virtual workshop will take agencies through the current state of PDGM and move through all the aspects of home health reimbursement.  PDGM has brought many changes to home health and PDGM is not all that reimbursement is made up of.  In addition to working through the fine details of PDGM changes the workshop will also cover extensive examples for LUPA, PEP and Outlier adjustments.  There will be a discussion of Pre-Bill claim reviews and the significance of that.  The impact of OASIS & Coding and medical review programs have the potential to more directly impact reimbursement than some of the other aspects of PDGM and this workshop will get you up to date on all that.  Cash flow has been one of the gravest areas of concern in recent months….let us take you through the basics of cash flow projections and how best to make that work in your organization.  Whether you are a biller, collector or Administrator, this workshop is just what is needed to get you up to date on all things Home Health Reimbursement.
