Medicare Advantage 101: How SNFs can optimize payments + claims

As Medicare Advantage (MA) plans grow in popularity, so do the challenges they present for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). MA's unique clinical policies cause more denials and administrative work, especially when combined with inconsistent authorization processes and delayed reimbursements.

But SNFs can successfully navigate MA while improving efficiency and patient care. The key is implementing a proactive plan to submit cleaner claims and optimize revenue.

Join this session to hear how one organization simplified MA processes with technology. In just half an hour, you’ll learn how SNFs can:

• Use online payment options to streamline patient collections
• Decrease denials that come from restrictive coverage rules
• Improve payment accuracy and payer follow-up
• Streamline appeal submission and claim statusing
• Gain visibility into the entire revenue cycle

We’ll also explore proven ways to collect patient responsibility from private-pay patients and clear up the confusion between traditional Medicare, MA, and supplemental Medicare plans.

Who should join this session?
SNF or nursing home administrators, practice managers, billing specialists, patient access teams, or revenue cycle leaders who want to enhance their MA claims processes and streamline patient entry.
