Many providers including physician practices regularly suffer from claims denials due to coding issues or lack of medical necessity. Whether you’re an in-network or out-of-network provider, there is something you can do to recoup.
Register for this pre-recorded webinar presented by our Healthcare Law and Regulatory Expert and learn to draft an appeal letter that will get results. The key, of course, is to understand why your claim was denied in the first place, so you can provide the necessary evidence to demonstrate your right to payment.
Our speaker, who is an attorney is fully equipped to deliver several real-world methods that do (and don’t) work to recapture payment after an initial denial. He’ll guide you on how to interpret plan terms and provide Explanations of Benefits documents.
This webinar is designed to help you understand why a claim was denied and then collect and submit the documentation required to make a successful appeal. The speaker will explain how and when to make a second appeal, if necessary—and how to appeal not just no-pay claims but low-pay claims as well.
This program is designed for in-network and out-of-network providers, physicians, and staff members.
