2010 has been a year of change for oxygen, CPAP and RAD suppliers. With revised LCDs, special payment rules under Competitive Bidding, limited maintenance payments and increased audits, respiratory suppliers have had more than their fair share of changing reimbursement guidelines and new regulations. Have you kept up with them all?
Join Andrea Stark for this informative webinar and ensure your respiratory business is operating in compliance with the Medicare program.
Andrea will start the course by providing answers to some of the most frequently asked oxygen, PAP and RAD questions, including:
Oxygen
* When can I bill for maintenance payments, and what do I have to do to justify the claims?
* Which oxygen modalities/equipment qualifies for content payments, and when can I start billing for them?
* Which situations qualify for a new 36-month rental period?
* What are my obligations if an oxygen patient moves or travels outside of my service area?
CPAP & RAD
* Who can conduct the required re-evaluation of a CPAP or RAD patient?
* What is considered compliant usage of a CPAP or RAD, and how must compliance be documented?
* What are my options if a CPAP or RAD patient is not re-evaluated within 90-days of initiating therapy?
* What if the patient fails their second CPAP trial?
Andrea will conclude the session with the latest respiratory billing updates issued by CMS, including:
* Clarifications to Oxygen Maintenance Payment Regulations
* Proposed Changes to the 36-Month Oxygen Payment Rule
* New Documentation Requirements for CPAP to RAD Upgrades
* How Competitive Bidding will impact Oxygen, PAPs and RADs
Attendees will be able to submit questions throughout the course and time will be allotted to ask live questions at the end of the event.
Seats are limited. Online registration will be available until 11:59pm on 9/29/10 or until each session is full.
Competitive Bidding: Is it Really Winner Takes All?
2:00pm - 3:00pm EST
The new Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) includes provisions to expand Round 2 of the Competitive Bidding program to an additional 21 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) and requires all products subject to bidding under the existing program to be provided at bid prices nationwide by 2016.
With the recently released Round 1 bid amounts scheduled to be implemented in 2011 and the Round 2 bid window set to open next spring, Competitive Bidding is moving full speed with almost no signs of stopping.
During this webinar, Andrea Stark will discuss what all DMEPOS suppliers need to know about the Competitive Bidding program, even if you don’t win a contract or plan to bid.
Topics to be covered include:
* Round 1 Single Payment Amounts and Bid Winners (as released by CMS)
* Affected Products, MSAs and Implementation Deadlines
* What to Expect in Round 2
* Your Options if you Don’t Win a Bid Contract
* Whether You can Keep Your Current Patients Under the Bid Program
* Stipulations and Requirements for Servicing Patients who Live in or Travel to Competitive Bid Areas (CBAs)
* The Effects of Competitive Bidding on Oxygen
* The Potential for a National Bid on Mail-Order Supplies
* The Likelihood and Cost of Repealing the Program Entirely
Attendees will be able to submit questions throughout the course and time will be allotted to ask live questions at the end of the event.
