602. Managing Diagnosis Coding and Impact on Revenue is proudly presented to you by National Association for Home Care & Hospice. Thank you. We hope that you enjoy your course.
Description:
Diagnosis coding is a top driving factor in the PDGM model. The primary diagnosis establishes the Clinical Grouping and the secondary diagnosis provides added reimbursement through the Co-Morbidity Adjustment. How are agencies adjusting for the operational monitoring of diagnosis coding and the impact on revenue? Agencies need to optimize opportunities to identify changing of the diagnosis coding between the first and second 30-day payment periods.
Learning Objectives:
• Identify operational processes for managing diagnosis coding
• Analyze reimbursement trends impacted by diagnosis coding
• Establish an auditing checklist for diagnosis coding accuracy
