HIPAA Basics for the Chiropractic Office - Part 1

This is the first part of a three-part webinar series on HIPAA basics, sponsored by ChiroHealthUSA. The course addresses the significant healthcare policy changes expected in 2019, including a budget law with extensive healthcare provisions, proposed overhauls of Medicare's E/M documentation and payment systems, updates to MIPS regulations, expansion of VA referrals to chiropractors, HIPAA audits, and increased claim analysis with ICD-10 coding. These regulatory changes are poised to impact chiropractic offices for years to come. Dr. Mario Fucinari, a Certified Professional Compliance Officer and Certified Medical Compliance Specialist, guides participants through the latest developments and their implications for practice. The training covers CERT Review Findings and their effect on chiropractic, recent OIG Reports, OIG Federal Sentencing Guidelines, and updates in MACRA.
