The Two-Midnight Rule: Presumption of Risk
Could you and your care team be at risk when you upgrade a patient from observation to inpatient simply because the patient passed a second midnight in the hospital, based on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) contentious Two-Midnight Rule?
And what about the expectation? How does expectation enter this equation? And finally, what should be present to change that expectation?
During the next live edition of Monitor Mondays, Ben Kartchner, MD, a prominent physician advisor, will thread the needle of this controversial regulation to give his perspective on how the two-midnight expectation can serve as your compass, helping you steer through regulatory challenges, ensure compliance, and prevent unnecessary denials.
Other segments during the weekly Internet broadcast will include these instantly recognizable features:
