What Providers Need to Know

CMS is once again proposing that Medicare phase out the Inpatient-Only List. While the proposal faces feedback and review, it would be a major regulatory shift for hospitals impacting how inpatient admissions are justified, documented and reimbursed with implications for compliance, revenue integrity and care planning.

In this webinar, Dr. Ronald Hirsch, vice president of Regulations and Education, provides expert strategies for managing this major policy change to avoid claim denials and revenue loss.
