Webinar Overview:

The most significant change agencies have experienced with billing in 2021 is the timely submission requirement for the Request for Anticipated Payment (RAP) and associated penalty.   The coming Notice of Admission (NOA) in 2022 is the next big issue. RAPs have no associated reimbursement in 2021 but carry a monetary penalty if not filed timely and the same will be true for the NOA. The NOA potentially carries a more significant penalty punch and agencies must be prepared.  This session will review some of the key areas of concern with both and guide agencies to compliance.

Objectives:

• Review current claims processing issues log at the Medicare MAC and identify how agencies can track their issues
• Review statistics regarding the No Pay RAP
• Outline penalty and how agencies monitor
• Review the details for NOA regulation from the Proposed Final Rule
• Review Claims Processing Manual for Updates
• Detail the plan of attack for agencies to succeed with NOA implementation in 2022
