Medicare Advantage can be a valuable option for seniors on a fixed income since the plan mirrors traditional managed care and may help keep costs down. For you, however, choose wisely before joining these networks. Make sure you verify ALL Medicare coverage for maximum efficiency; these plans may pay for otherwise statutorily non-covered services (e.g., exams and therapies). Exploring these plans to find the perfect blend of fee systems and contracted plans for your office will optimize coverage and benefits for your senior patients and result in better client relationships.
I loved it! It was great to see the process and look at how you fill out the forms with examples. This made it easy for me to comprehend. It simplified the auditing process. I was really struggling with just reading how to audit. I am a visual person, and I really like being able to pause and rewatch the videos.
