Medicare Management Training

BKD Health Care Group has helped hundreds of skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) with operations and clinical consulting and Medicare billing. Our Medicare certification and management training program is tailored to SNF issues. Whether you have a Medicare program in place or are looking to become certified, educating your staff will reduce problems and help you and your patients receive the benefits you are entitled to from proper management of Medicare.

Our five-session Medicare training program strives to help your facility achieve patient-centered management of Medicare through improving compliance, increasing knowledge of regulatory issues and reaching greater efficiency. We create a training environment that encourages employees and simplifies tasks while achieving improved compliance. Our five sessions are:

• Session One:  How to Manage Medicare Within Guidelines and Federal Regulations
• Session Two:  The Medicare Admission and Inquiry Process
• Session Three:  Part A PPS
• Session Four:  ICD-9 Coding and Nursing Documentation Guidelines
• Session Five:  NEMB, ABN (Denial Process), Quality Assurance and Medical Review

Our team of experienced clinical and operational consultants developed a SNF Medicare management training manual to support participants through the program and for use as a reference source on Medicare for years following the training. In addition to the manual, we provide CDs containing many sample electronic forms that serve as templates you can tailor for your facility.
