Present on Admission: Reimbursement Depends on Documentation
Audio Conference Recording Price: 199.00 -
SUMMARY
You just got the hang of POA indicators and then CMS added certain conditions that can impact reimbursement depending on the indicator assigned. Submitting accurate POA indicators and having thorough documentation will save your facility from taking a reimbursement hit and keep your facility in compliance. Join us for a 60-minute audio conference where you and your co-workers responsible for coding will discover:
- POA: What it is and how it works with MS-DRGs
- How to properly submit POA indicators on the UB-04 and 837I form
- What needs to be documented for accurate POA indicator selection
- What are the current hospital acquired conditions (HAC) as defined by CMS
-
PROGRAM BENEFITS
As of October 1, 2008 the POA indicator assigned to certain secondary diagnoses can have a major impact on your facility's reimbursement. Staying on top of POA requirements is critical to making sure your facility doesn't lose any reimbursement dollars. After this 60-minute audio conference, you and your co-workers responsible for coding will learn the ins and outs of POA, how POA works with MS-DRGs and what the guidelines are for accurate assignment of the indicators.
