Common pitfalls
Where home health claims go wrong
These are the errors we look for first when reviewing a practice in this specialty. If any sound familiar, a billing review will tell you what they are costing.
- Episodes billed without the face-to-face encounter documented, which voids payment entirely.
- A re-certification missed, ending payability part-way through care.
- Visit notes that do not support the level of care billed for the period.
