Palmetto GBA is pleased to announce our 2015 Home Health workshop series, ‘The Golden Years – Medicare at 50!’  These workshops are designed for home health providers and their staff to equip them with the tools they need to be successful with Medicare billing, coverage and documentation requirements.

 

These workshops will provide insight for home health agency staff at all levels.  Palmetto GBA will provide information related to the most common errors identified through a variety of data analysis and some hints and tips on the reasons why these errors occur. Palmetto GBA’s ultimate goal is to have educated and astute providers who know how to accurately and skillfully apply the information they learn to their documentation and billing practices!

 

CMS requires that Medicare contractors track all educational activities, which consists of capturing the provider’s six-digit Provider Transaction Access Number (PTAN) and National Provider Identifier (NPI). Attendees are asked to be prepared to provide this information when they attend the workshop.
