Hello everyone,

For all the coders here who work remotely for a physician group: How do you receive and code hospital encounters? What information do you require them to input for you?

Most doctors scribble on the rounding sheet and then hand it over to staff to send to the billers. If billers do not have access to the hospital records or their access is limited to let's say 30 days, do you request the doctor to send (scan) all the reports in order to verify their codes? is there a requirement that these visits/reports be scanned into their EMRs for compliance reasons and proof of service?

What are the solutions that you have used and actually worked with this workflow?

Thank you!
 
Hello All,

Has anyone looked at the 70 shoppable services that have been posted by CMS? Hospitals will be required to post prices for 70 defined services on Jan. 1 2020 (provided the final rule reflects current sentiment).

It appears there is no indication of price transparency slowing down. Would love to hear thoughts from others. Thanks!
 
Good Morning,

I understand that hospital transparency is going into effect on January 1st. I'm wondering if any physician practices have ideas of implementing this? Please share your thoughts. Thank you.
