2025 Billers Forum
Getting paid by Medicare, Medicaid and Medicare Advantage plans for the services provided is essential to nursing facilities’ operation. Various billing and eligibility issues create challenges to getting paid at all, let alone timely and accurately. This education program will pay for itself as it reviews the program and plan requirements and provides invaluable tips and tricks to getting paid. Topics that will be discussed this year include Medicaid/Medicare billing issues, the transition from MI Health Link to MI Coordinated Health, LOCD, PDPM, Medicare Advantage, collections, and more!
Program Highlights:
- Staying up to date with beneficiary notices
- Managing Medicare as a secondary payer
- Compliant billing with Medicare informational claims
- Where we are with the Targeted Probe and Educate (TPE) Audit
- Managed care tips - new CMS mandates for managed care plans
- Updates from MDHHS
This agenda is in progress and will continue to be updated as we approach the event.
