The chances that your practice will face a Medicare audit are higher than ever. In fact, the latest stats show that payer audits quadrupled last year. The reason? Medicare insurers are trying to claw back every dime possible.
The uptick in Medicare audit requests isn’t just restricted to Part B. In fact, Medicare Advantage auditors are looking for errors in claims that go back through 2018. If they find any issues during that “look back” period, you’ll have to pay back reimbursement you received six years ago, along with potential fines, penalties, and program exclusions.
The key to navigating, responding to, and surviving a Medicare audit is to have an expert in your corner. This is where healthcare attorney Osato F. Chitou, Esq., MPH, can help. In her 90-minute online training, she will share proven, straightforward strategies to help you ensure your practice is audit-ready, and if an issue is identified, that you’ll know how optimize your response.
