Maintaining billing privileges and retaining patient receivables are two key ingredients for achieving a healthy bottom line in any healthcare organization. But these tasks are proving to be more and more difficult for healthcare providers as federal and state governments continue to ramp up efforts to reduce fraud, waste and abuse in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. CMS and its contractors are rigorously enforcing program participation rules like never before, and many healthcare providers are now faced with reimbursement denials, civil monetary penalties, or even worse – termination from participation in the Medicare, Medicaid and/or TRICARE programs.
Hancock Daniel’s Reimbursement Group actively counsels healthcare providers on how to structure their operations in compliance with ever-changing payment systems. We also provide day-to-day advice on Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE and private payor billing and coverage requirements.
