It is not a matter of whether an agency will receive a medical review additional document request (ADR), it is more of a matter of when.

CMS has contracted with Noridian for enhanced oversight beginning with certain hospice diagnoses starting with 2021 admissions. Is your agency prepared for an audit?

AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:
  • Describe ways an agency can receive an ADR and how to respond
  • Define how a compliance program relates to ADR management and should be reflected in a policy and procedure (P&P)
  • Explain the benefits of a P&P for ADR management and enhanced oversight
  • Use checklists to add value to an ADR management P&P
  • Identify the benefits of routine P&P audits

WEBINAR DETAILS

If your agency wants to be ahead of the curve, it is imperative to design related policies, procedures, and processes to prepare for enhanced oversight. This timely webinar will review the critical components of a medical review ADR and the key elements that should be incorporated. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Instructional information in the ADR
  • An audit tool/checklist to integrate into your routine quality assurance and compliance processes
  • When and how to perform routine audits
  • What to do with the results

Learn how to tie in your agency’s compliance program and how it should be reflected in your ADR management policy and procedure. Training, education, and creating a culture of compliance will help your organization prepare for ADRs. Don’t let a request completely disrupt your organization including financial recoupment that frequently leads to difficult outcomes. Prepare your agency with proactive actions for the world of increased Medicare oversight.
