Week one

diagnoses (153, to be exact), CMS has proposed a system
that will turn coding on its ear! [More

Billing
Week two
PPS Refinement for CFOs & Billers
Thursday, June 14, 2007, 1:00-2:30 p.m.

PPS proposals have on your agency? Finding the answer

OASIS
Week three:
PPS Changes Redefine OASIS Payment Questions
Tuesday,
June 19, 2007, 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. Eastern
Time
Under the PPS changes, CMS plans to redefine

reduce Medicare reimbursement, distort outcome reporting

change in payment for medical supplies. As with all other aspects
of the Proposed Rule, your supply revenue will depend on clinician
OASIS accuracy. Learn how to cope with the bottom-line effects of
the proposed rule as it relates to your supply payment. [More
