“Literally billions of dollars a year are being extorted from healthcare providers due to a system of rules, regulations, and guidelines that are not outdated, but just plain wrong,” writes senior healthcare analyst Frank Cohen, director of analytics and business Intelligence for DoctorsManagement in the current edition of the RACmonitor e-News. Cohen joined the Monitor Mondays broadcast to make his case and suggest strategies for improving what he believes is a flawed system of medical record auditing.
