DESCRIPTION
The Triple Check Process is a critical component of Medicare compliance. Under PDPM, skilled nursing facility (SNF) processes should include validation beyond checking therapy minutes and activities of daily living (ADL) coding. Providers will need to validate each PDPM component and must have a robust Triple Check Process in place to ensure accuracy that is well supported in the medical record for each coded element impacting reimbursement.

The Triple Check Process is an internal audit that ensures billing accuracy and compliance with regulatory guidelines prior to submission of claims to Medicare/ Managed Care Providers for review and payment. It is a multi-level process requiring a group effort from the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) in order to provide a check and balance to the entire admissions process for new Medicare A/ Managed Care residents. This process can seem overwhelming at times but completing it thoroughly can be the difference between a paid or unpaid claim. The Triple Check Process also puts you more at ease for if/when an Additional Documentation Request (ADR) or insurance audit is requested.

Join us for this 1-hour live webinar to learn about common billing errors to consider, the benefits of having a Triple Check Process and the pitfalls of not having one.
