Let’s Talk TPE Audits

Hi Medicare therapists! I know audit is a scary word, but unfortunately, it is a part of the world we work in.

Audits can occur not just from Medicare or insurance, but for other reasons too (like being grieved against or legal issues).

Also make sure your billing codes match what you did accordingly, for example, if you billed 90837 your note needs to indicate you met for 53 minutes or more and the exact time as well. If you need more help, you can schedule a discovery call with me here or consider this training I did on how to pass an audit with ease. The note template that helped me pass is available on my Etsy.
