Insurers/carriers can deny non-covered services as well as covered services for which pre-operative conditions were allegedly not satisfied. Participants in this webinar will learn how to determine whether services are covered and the appropriate steps are followed to create a more efficient practice with stronger patient satisfaction when they do not have to incur undue charges. It is difficult to collect reimbursement when you do not know the appropriate party to charge and from whom to seek such payment. For this reason, a comprehensive understanding of the coordination of benefit rules – in particular the rules set forth in patient plans and governing their coverage – is imperative. With such knowledge, your practice will be able to better understand who is primarily responsible for payment, to what extent, and the processes you need to go through to secure the reimbursement that you have surely earned. Participants in this webinar will listen to Thomas J. Force, an attorney and owner of a successful medical billing company specializing in these aspects, share his knowledge as well as techniques to ensure the most efficient and profitable operation.
