Lunch & Learn Webinar: How To Prepare For Enhance Oversight

How To Prepare For Enhance Oversight 

SESSION OVERVIEW

The current state in the post-acute care industry involves a provisional period of enhanced oversight also known as PPEO. Both federal and state agencies continue to increase oversight and scrutiny of post-acute providers, with a focus in hospice and home health. This is not a time for an agency to sit and wait for oversight to hit, but rather to prepare for when it comes knocking. 

This lunch and learn will help providers take a look at preparing a strategy for enhanced oversight. Assess if you are prepared and if not, what your next steps are. Included in the presentation is how to prepare for enhanced oversight, including tools and audit recommendations to identify agency risks to prevent increased audit and repayment demands.

Upon completion of today's presentation, the participant will be able to:

• Understand the current state of the Industry related to Provisional Period of Enhanced Oversight (PPEO).
• Identify critical steps, processes and tools to prepare an organization for enhanced oversight.
• Identify targeted risk areas, both operational and financial.
