Post-Acute Transfer Policy
Are changes to the Post-Acute Care Transfer Policy costing your hospital hundreds of thousands of dollars in Medicare reimbursements?
The number of Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) subject to the Post-Acute Care Transfer Policy has expanded dramatically in recent years, going from 10 up to 273.
In order to identify situations where improper coding resulted in overpayment of claims, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) established a process to identify and correct for coding errors.
This process, however, only identifies or corrects instances where claims have been overpaid. Errors resulting in under reimbursement are not addressed.
To ensure that your hospital is not losing significant revenue due to incorrect coding, it is critical that you take action to address claims subject to these regulations.
