Identifying Top Reimbursement Compliance Issues in 2008: Preparing For OIG, Medicare Contractor, and RAC Audits Audio Conference
Managed Care Information Center, April 2008, Minutes: 120
The 2008 Office of the Inspector General's (OIG) work plan provides a list of areas considered subject to abuse, and therefore, increased scrutiny. Although many of the 2008 OIG’s initiatives are carried over from past years, this year it has included several new focus areas.
The recovery audit contractor (RAC) demonstration program was slated to end this month, but the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 has made the RAC program permanent. It requires that HHS implement the program to identify Medicare underpayments and overpayments nationwide by 2010. To accomplish that objective, CMS plans to implement the RAC program in phases with the first phase beginning now.
Join Healthcare Reimbursement Monitor and Duane Abbey, a renowned healthcare compliance and reimbursement expert, for 'Identifying Top Reimbursement Compliance Issues in 2008: Preparing For OIG, Medicare Contractor, and RAC Audits,' that took place in April 2008.
