What is Hospice Court—Star Witness: Hospice Physicians Adeptly Addressing Audits (P03) about?
Outcomes 1. Implement medical record documentation strategies that are designed to avoid adverse audit findings. 2. Effectively advocate for their patients in the audit appeal process, both in writing and through verbal testimony. Government audits of hospice medical records are ubiquitous. It is not a matter of “if” a hospice will be audited, but “when.” Such audits focus on patient clinical eligibility for hospice services. Accordingly, the auditors scrutinize the clinical judgment exercised by hospice physicians in prognosticating life expectancies. Once commenced, these audits require prompt action and strategic advocacy. In this interactive presentation, hospice physicians will learn about the audit process, who the auditors are, what they look for, and the key documentation that often drives audit results. Physicians will examine “case study” examples of audited claims and learn about and develop targeted audit appeal strategies. Physicians will also observe and participate in mock Administrative Law Judge hearing scenarios to hone their advocacy skills.
