Jessica is a frequent speaker nationwide and at our show.

THIS WEEK, Jessica Gustafson, Esq. , one of the founding Partners at The Health Law Partners, is our special guest again, as we dive deeper into the Final Rule for Medicare Reporting and Returning of Overpayments, CMS-6037F, and what it means for hospital compliance programs. Jessica recently published a complete review of the key points hospitals need to know and also appeared on our April 15 show to give her legal review.

We are further reviewing this as a call to review your own compliance plans, given the change in how CMS sees providers’ responsibility: providers *should* know, through an effective compliance plan, about all your improper payments, even before they go out the door. Of course, that begs the question, how do they go out the door if you know they are improper?

Come join us to discuss THAT one…

We will be discussing:

Has anything really changed?
Is this really anything new or did it just get a new coat of paint?
What does “should have known” really mean?
Despite CMS’ advice to the contrary, when should you get legal involved in these investigations?
What should you do with PEPPER reports NOW and who should do it?

And you should review our latest article on all this:
