Preparing for RAC Scrutiny - Audio Recording

Session 2 of the Series: Surviving a RAC Attack: Strategies to Reduce Financial Risk

Description:
History can be a great teacher. Past fraud prevention initiatives, such as ORT, provide a glimpse into the RAC program and what homecare agencies can expect. Providers must learn how to evaluate their clinical and financial operations and uncover vulnerabilities to determine the correct actions. Proper preparation and good techniques will help you and your staff respond to the threat and retain the payments your agency deserves.

This session will explore:

  • How the lessons we learned in ORT can help you prepare for the RAC program
  • What factors will be used to expose target agencies
  • Ways to identify your agency’s risks
  • Pre-emptive strikes such as clinical record audits, staff education, and documentation techniques
  • Home health aide and medical social services involvement with the RAC program

Presenters:Diane J. Omdahl and Pam Warmack

The RAC Audit: Defensive Strategies - Audio Recording

The RAC program is the latest of many efforts by the CMS to ensure appropriate Medicare payments. Even though RACs will focus on specific issues, their findings can create a specter of fraud. Homecare providers must know how to explain suspicious practices and strengthen compliant care delivery.

The RAC Audit: Defensive Strategies - Audio Recording
After a RAC Audit: Your Rights & Appeals - Audio Recording

Sometimes, even with the best of preparation, things don’t work out right. Once a RAC determines overpayment has occurred, the agency must either defend its actions or pay. There is too much on the line for an agency just to accept the findings. That’s where the appeals process comes into play.

Surviving a RAC Attack: Strategies to Reduce Financial Risk - Audio Recording

Not since Operation Restore Trust (ORT) in the mid-1990s have homecare providers faced a greater source of grief. RACs recouped almost $250 million in overpayments, taking nearly a quarter of a billion dollars in revenue away from homecare providers. The pilot program was a huge success. As a result, the CMS is rolling out a permanent, nationwide program this year. How do you protect your agency from this scrutiny?
