Hospice providers face increased government scrutiny as regulators pursue civil and criminal healthcare fraud. This presentation better prepares hospice providers to identify promptly and diligently respond to audit requests from government contractors (TPE, UPIC, CERT, RAC, QIC, SMRC, QIO).

Learning Objectives:

• Describe the variety of Medicare and Medicaid review audits.
• Increase their knowledge base surrounding the audit process, how to respond and the timeliness of submission.
• Gain confidence in responding to a denial, the implications, and billing under a denial.
