Event Date: 2/7/2019

Event Overview

Thursday, February 7, 2019
1:00 p.m. CT – 2:30 p.m. CT (90 minutes)
Hosted by: Health Alliance Medical Plans

This event is hosted in our ReadyTalk platform.

The Alliance Coding Work Group brings together individuals within Alliance member health plans, health systems or provider groups who have responsibility for coding, documentation or other activities related to RADV audits for Medicare Advantage and Commercial/Exchange products. Each call is hosted by a health plan that will share a selection of medical charts with the group for feedback on risk adjustment coding best practices.

The medical charts are shared at least two weeks in advance of each call. Participants should review the charts, complete the pre-work questions and come prepared to share how they would code each chart and supporting documentation source(s), if applicable.

Remaining time will be used for open discussion.


Audience

Certified coders and managers with responsibility for the oversight of coders, as well as plan staff with responsibility for physician training around accurate and specific documentation related to coding.
