Rehabilitation Nurses provide their Fiscal Intermediary (FI) with massive amounts of documentation to show evidence of nursing care in addition to securing appropriate reimbursement as it relates to LCDs and RAC reviews. This Webcast will help you gain a better understanding of the role a FI plays within the world of CMS and learn to streamline the process.

Join our guest experts from across the country who will discuss how to efficiently navigate the CMS system as it relates to the IRF-PPS and assist you in saving time preparing documentation and, perhaps, improve reimbursements.

Objectives:
1. Define the role of the FI.
2. Identify key components to successful nursing documentation.
3. Identify key missteps that can trigger an audit or denial

Audience: nurse managers, administrators, PPS coordinators, nursing directors, medical directors, therapy managers
