💡OIG Roundtable 119: The Medicare Policies Shaping Commercial Payors—Like It or Not Medicare policies don’t just stay in their lane. As CMS rolls out new National and Local Coverage Determinations (NCDs and LCDs), commercial payors are increasingly being influenced—sometimes in ways they never anticipated. These regulations are shifting reimbursement models, altering compliance expectations, and blurring the lines between government and private insurance. In this episode, Eric Rubenstein, MSCJ, CFE, Wade McFaul, and Matt Kochanski break down the direct and indirect ways CMS regulations are reshaping the commercial payor space. From unexpected policy overlaps to the long-term impact on fraud investigations, this discussion unpacks what industry professionals need to know to stay ahead. https://lnkd.in/emEiUyig #HealthcareFraud #SIU #MedicarePolicies #CMSRegulations #CommercialPayors #HealthcareCompliance #InsuranceIndustry #FraudPrevention #HealthcareInvestigations #PolicyImpact #MedicalBilling #ReimbursementRules #ProgramIntegrity

🚩THESE CODING MISTAKES ARE COSTING YOU THOUSANDS! Are you unknowingly throwing money away? One simple mistake in DME or Chronic Care Management (CCM) coding can lead to denied claims, audits, and even fines. 🚨The most painful mistakes you might be making right now: - Using time-based CPT codes incorrectly → If your documentation doesn’t prove the time spent, kiss that reimbursement goodbye. - Failing to meet DME documentation requirements → Without airtight records, your claims WILL be rejected. - Unbundling or overcoding services → This can trigger fraud investigations (yes, even if it was unintentional). - Missing required signatures or provider attestations → No signature? No payment. - Billing for services that lack medical necessity → One flagged claim could mean a full-blown audit of your entire practice. - Ignoring state, federal, and payer-specific policies → The rules are changing in 2025. Are you prepared? If any of these sound familiar, you NEED to attend this webinar. What You’ll Learn: ✅ How to fix these errors before they catch up to you. ✅ Compliance strategies to protect your revenue and reputation. ✅ What OIG, CMS, and MACs are cracking down on in 2025. Don’t wait until it’s too late—your revenue is at stake.
