Must-Know Billing & Coding Fundamentals for Compliance Professionals

As compliance officers, we know all too well that our departments are often viewed as cost centers. While we might think differently, it doesn’t change the perception of our organization, despite our best efforts. But there is one way to make a measurable impact on our P&Ls, and that’s by ensuring proper billing practices are being conducted by our billing departments. After all, in our annual survey, 25% of compliance professionals stated that their billing department represents the greatest risk to their organization.

But what if you don’t come from the world of coding and billing? As complex as coding and billing regulations are, where can you even start?

And I’ve got an idea of what every compliance officer should be looking for when managing, auditing, and assessing your own billing department.
