The #1 concern reported by CMS about chiropractors is that, as a profession, we do a poor job of understanding maintenance care. Of course, that is THEIR definition of maintenance care. When you better understand the rules of medical necessity in Medicare, you begin to see what they are talking about. The truth is that there is a “gray” area between the distinct “white” of active treatment and the “black” of maintenance treatment, and that gray area is confusing when defining “covered” vs. “not covered” chiropractic care in Medicare. Join us to find out the following critical information in time for the MACRA Section 514 implementation January 1, 2017:
Find out exactly what Medicare deems as maintenance care and how to recognize it with our patients Learn what your options are for treating your Medicare patient’s maintenance care for cash Hear scripting that is vital to your patient understanding what’s going on with their coverage, or lack thereof Properly document the difference between active and maintenance care Better manage those little incidents that come up for chronic, Medicare patients
