Payer reimbursement has become an increasingly complex issue for healthcare providers. Unfortunately, many spine and pain management ASCs may be letting significant revenue from insurers slip through the cracks.
Sophisticated surgical technology has enabled physicians to perform increasingly complex medical procedures in an ASC environment. At the same time, governmental and commercial payers have reduced reimbursement rates and reshaped claims management processes. Some progressive insurers are already implementing outcome-based contracts with ASC partners. This confluence of change has resulted in serious financial confusion among ASCs as administrators and coders grapple with cash-flow problems.
National Medical Billing Services' reimbursement experts Lisa Rock, who serves as president, Tamara Wagner, vice president of performance review, and Alison Kuly, a highly seasoned spine coder, will discuss how ASC administrators can implement key financial strategies to optimize cash-flow in payer-provider transactions during a webinar on June 21.
Webinar registrants will glean an in-depth understanding of payer behavior for spine and pain management ASCs as it relates to medical necessity. Participants will also learn best administrative practices for outpatient services, complex spine surgeries and pain management procedures, as well as tips and tricks to maximize coding efficiency in today's reimbursement environment.
