Medicare Advantage and Prior Authorizations: The Good. The Bad. The Ugly.
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Prior authorizations among Medicare Advantage plans have drawn criticism and concern from patients, providers, lawmakers, and regulators. But hospitals and doctors are uniquely positioned to advocate for their patients’ access to and coverage for care. What’s necessary is the need to understand the rules of the process. And Medicare Advantage plans have many of them.
During the next live edition of the venerable Monitor Monday, the Internet broadcast, Richelle Marting, a healthcare attorney, and certified coder, will help you understand when and how Medicare Advantage plans can use prior authorizations for the critical protections you need to know to advocate for patient care.
Broadcast segments will also include these instantly recognizable features:
• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.
• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.
• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.
