Medicare Bad Debt Recovery Reporting
Bad debt does not have to be a closed case. BKD National Health Care Group can help identify, capture, report and recoup Medicare inpatient, outpatient and crossover bad debt reimbursement your hospital is entitled to. Our recovery solutions apply retrospectively to open and re-openable cost reporting years, concurrently to Medicare log preparation and prospectively through process improvements.
BKD’s process, combined with Medicare audit and patient accounting experience, utilizes provider- and fiscal intermediary-source patient data, including Provider Summary Report (PSR), Medicare and Medicaid remittance data, collection agency data and hospital-specific policies and procedures.
Using these resources, our CPAs and advisors can identify coinsurance and deductible dollars that qualify for Medicare reimbursement. We accumulate, organize and document the support to substantiate patient accounts. The result: You have the information to create and maintain an accurate Medicare bad debt log.

I have used BKD at two different facilities for a full range of financial services. Their professionals have provided us with audit, tax, coding and billing and cost report services and have assisted us in operations management and revenue enhancement. Routinely, implementation of their recommendations had a positive influence on the financial outcomes of our programs.

Catholic Health Partners is an important client—that’s the clear message I get from BKD. From partner interaction to the hands-on involvement and accessibility of senior-level and other personnel, theirs is an adept team effort that works very well. They are highly responsive to our needs. I also appreciate the wide range of BKD services I can use for more complex business issues.

Last year our 60-bed facility census was low, there was no reimbursement and by December we were $100,000 in the red. This is when we hired BKD for the Medicare certification and training. The following fiscal year end we were $98,000 in the black and able to keep the facility running.
