Description
Provider-based billing models can be tedious and confusing, requiring competent oversight and training to ensure compliance with these stringent Medicare rules. Physician supervision requirements vary depending on the type of services being provided as well as the location of the service. In today’s webinar, we will discuss the physician supervision requirements for diagnostic services and therapeutic services, the rules for on-campus vs. off-campus departments as well as the different types of physician supervision – general, direct, and personal required for each setting.
Learning Objectives
Areas Covered
Background
Hospital outpatient billing in a provider-based setting can be very nuanced and complicated. In provider-based billing – the main provider is the hospital, which in turn is responsible for ownership and operation of another location to provide additional healthcare services. These hospital outpatient clinics are subject to stricter government regulations because the patients are essentially being treated by the hospital either on-campus or off-campus. Provider-based billing requires qualified and competent revenue cycle management to ensure that providers are correctly identified and eligible for provider-based status and are also appropriately reimbursed.
Why Should You Attend
Medicare rules for provider-based billing compliance are quite complex to navigate. There are very specific physician oversight and supervision requirements for diagnostic services and therapeutic services, many nuances for on-campus vs. off-campus supervision requirements, etc.
