Overview:
CMS implemented the home health Probe and Educate Project in January 2016 to determine how well home health agencies are complying with the certification and recertification requirements under the Medicare home health care benefit.
The project requires that every one of the more than 6,000 certified home health agencies have an audit of a sample of five (5) pre-payment home health episodes. Agencies that receive denials on 2 or more of the sample records are subject to a second review of five more claims and the process can repeat as long as the agency has more than one record denied. The greatest fear is whether an agency can sustain the financial losses through repetitive cycles of these audits. The initial audits yielded denial rates as high as 97% of all claims reviewed.
Why Should You Attend:
Knowledge is power and the more home health agencies are prepared for these audits, the greater likelihood that your agency will be able to survive the audit and be able to continue to provide services to the vulnerable populations that require home health services.
Avoid the uncertainty and fear of the Probe and Educate Audit experience by ensuring your agency is fully knowledgeable of the process for the audits and a complete understanding of all of the regulatory requirements for certification and recertification of home health episodes.
Probe and Educate Audits are full audits reviewing the entire medical record for the selected episodesto determine if they support all of the regulatory requirements for certification and recertification plus the medical necessity of all services provided during the claim period under review.
There is no limit to the number of cycles an agency can be subject to. Due to the significant financial losses if claims are denied, every Medicare home health benefit must proactively implement adequate documentation to support the care provided.
