The Medicare Wellness Visit (MWV) is one of the key strategies in quality care gap closure. Reimbursements for the MWV are an economic draw but the multi-step process can be burdensome, leaving room for errors. If the MWV is performed incorrectly, fees should be paid back. In Feb. 2024, The US Attorney’s Office announced payback of over $11M from Penn State Health due to errors in their MWV performance. With the pandemic behind us, many feel more audits loom ahead and Penn State Health may have shined a light on potential opportunities for investigation.
In this 45-minute non-CME webinar*, Dr. Ulmer will discuss MWV compliant completion and note potential audit pitfalls. This session is appropriate for office billing and coding staff as they can be key in aiding this process.
*This is a non-CME webinar, but an option will be given for attendees to purchase access to obtain 1.0 AAFP Prescribed Credit which equals AMA PRA Cat I CME. This also equals 1.0 AAPC CEU for certified coders.
There is no cost to attend this webinar, but registration is required.
