Simplifying the Two-Midnight Rule: Simple as 1, 2, 3
Description
Long a contentious edict from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the Medicare Two-Midnight Rule can be simplified into three basic elements.
For the first time, Monitor Mondays, along with esteemed physician advisor Benjamin Kartchner, will be outlining them, along with all that’s needed to undo the gordian knot of denials.
During the next live edition of the venerable Internet radio broadcast, Dr. Kartchner will complete his discussion as to how detailed clinical updates, assessments, and rationale for continued hospitalization can preemptively address payer scrutiny and reduce denials while optimizing reimbursement for patient care.
Other segments during the weekly broadcast will include these instantly recognizable features:
• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.
• Legislative Update: Matthew Albright, chief legislative affairs analyst for Zelis, will report on current healthcare legislation.
• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.
