Background

Regulations that apply to Physicians at Teaching Hospitals (PATH) are convoluted and difficult to navigate. Teaching hospitals receive federal funds to train residents in their journey to becoming practicing physicians. PATH regulations and documentation requirements are complex.

Why Should You Attend

PATH services are high audit targets for auditors because of the additional government funds hospitals receive. When you submit claims as a teaching physician, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) expects you to follow all of their rules. Comprehensive clinical documentation is critical for getting paid for the services that residents provide.
