CSPPM recertification course outline:

• Encounter Processing
• Accounts Receivable: Collections, Policy, and Evaluation
• Budgeting and Benchmarking

The passing score is 70%. If you do not pass on the first attempt, there is a mandatory 30-day waiting period. Please keep this in mind, as the deadline to complete the recertification assessment (to maintain your certification) is October 1, 2020*,

In 2018, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services released the CY 2019 Revisions to Payment Policies under the Physician Fee Schedule and other Revisions to Medicare Part B, which included policies related to Medicare Quality Payment Program (QPP).

Clinicians have two tracks to choose from in the QPP based on their practice size, specialty, location, patient population, and Alternative Model participation: 1.) Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) or 2.) Advanced Alternative Payment Models.

This webinar will focus on the requirements of physicians' involvement in the QPP and their reimbursement ramifications of participation. Physicians will be made aware of their current participation level and how this will affect their practices and continued improvement of care delivered to patients.

This course discusses coding and payment systems, which establish the potential revenue of the physician practice. Other topics include fee schedules and relative value systems as well as compliance and rules for teaching physicians.
