FREE WEBINAR:

CMS Flexibilities to Address COVID-19
at CAHs and RHCs

Wednesday, August 12, 3:00 PM - 3:45 PM EST

During the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE), health care leaders at critical access hospitals (CAH) and rural health clinics (RHC) are currently being called upon to make critical business and operational decisions, often based upon inadequate or constantly changing information.

To continue to provide both efficient and high quality care to your patients while remaining compliant with federal regulations, you must establish an understanding of the rapidly evolving rules that govern Medicare coverage and reimbursement for CAH and RHC services during the PHE.

Join us on August 12 for a free webinar when HCPro’s CAH/RHC regulatory expert Judith Kares, JD, will discuss the key flexibilities and waivers CMS created to help CAHs and RHCs continue to provide vital care during the PHE and explore ways to avoid potential compliance pitfalls.

During this webinar, we'll cover the following:

for CAHs

Designation requirements including hospitals without walls and swing bed requirements
Provider-based department designation in remote locations and in the patient’s home
Delivery of services via telehealth, other communication based technologies, and billing under Method II for the services

for RHCs

Designation requirements including supervision and staffing
Delivery of services via telehealth and other communication based technologies
Provider-based RHCs and the impact of the designation on reimbursement
Billing for non-RHC services such as labs and specimen collection
