We know we don’t have to preach to you about not being fraudulent. You are all ethical individuals. But, in a lot of instances, non-compliance can happen unintentionally. With the increasing amount of regulations (several resulting from health care reform) and differing interpretations of those regulations, many times it’s the “good guys” that are getting themselves into trouble. This is especially true for the small agencies who are stretched thin and doing what they can to survive. Can you imagine if one of them got into trouble? They would not be able to weather the storm.
At Daymarck, compliance is at the cornerstone of our business. It is our first and foremost priority. We never “up-code,” “re-sequence,” or use filler codes, and we code every single home care agency the exact same. We stay up to date with the constantly changing rules and regulations to ensure our clients are 100% compliant.
You should be able to keep all the hard work that you do. That’s why no matter if you are a home health provider, institution, clinician or biller, compliance needs to be your #1 priority.
