The process of enrolling with Medicare as a provider/organization can be incredibly tedious and time-consuming. Even though Medicare is the largest insurer in the country, the number of new Medicare enrollment applications continues to decline due to the enormous complexities surrounding enrollment application requirements. The cost of getting these enrollment application submissions wrong can have systemic consequences on an organization, including cash flow delays, credentialing issues, coding issues, denial management issues, patient satisfaction, and even impact quality scores.
In this webinar, our expert speaker will discuss the submission options, which providers are eligible for Medicare enrollment, each form type applicable, how to navigate the complicated form sections, key terminology, what ancillary documentation is needed with enrollment submission, applicable fees, most common errors, and best practice tips for successfully completing the CMS 855 forms.
