Outpatient Prospective Payments in 2019

Location:
Online

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) are making significant changes to the Outpatient Prospective Payment System—some of which go into effect on January 1, 2019. As CMS continues to review their policies and reimbursement for clinical services in hospital outpatient settings in the coming year, providers will be increasingly accountable for maintaining appropriate documentation of attestations for locations and modifiers on claims as well as managing constant changes in reimbursement for patient care services and 340B pharmaceuticals.

Join us for a webcast that will help you stay current on these changes. We’ll review the current landscape and discuss how providers can position themselves in 2019 to mitigate any unintended consequences of operational changes.
