Triaging Denials: Emphasize Preparation, Don’t Panic
Show Notes

There has recently been, as some might suggest, the luxury of taking a brief hiatus from medical record audits.

But that was then, and this is now.

Because now is the time to prepare, assess timeframes and provider requirements, and ensure that a proper compliance plan is in place. Certainly, audits are a growing source of concern, but there is no need for panic when adequately prepared, as you’ll learn from Susan Gatehouse, founder and CEO for Axea Solutions, who will be the special guest during the next live edition of Monitor Mondays.

Other segments to be featured during the live broadcast include the following:

  • Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Bryon, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment, reporting on legal implications facing healthcare providers.

  • Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds with another installment of his popular segment.

  • RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, a partner at the law firm of Practus, will file the Monitor Mondays RAC Report.

  • Legislative Update: Former Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) official Matthew Albright, now chief legislative affairs officer for Zelis, will report on the status of healthcare legislation associated with the current COVID-19 pandemic.

  • SDoH Report: Ellen Fink-Samnick, a nationally recognized expert on the social determinants of health (SDoH), will report on the news that’s happening at the intersection of COVID-19 and the SDoH. Ellen will also conduct the Monitor Mondays Listeners Survey.
