We are all a week away from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) rolling out new health identification cards to all Medicaid and Medicare recipients. The release of new MBIs is leaving some practices scrambling to ensure their systems and staff are prepared to handle new Medicare cards and identify the accurate MBI.
Ensure your practice is prepared for the MBI Rollout next week by following the first steps we provided in our blog, IS YOUR PRACTICE READY FOR THE NEW MEDICARE CARDS AND MBI ROLL OUT?
The issuing of new cards and MBIs (Medicare Beneficiary Identifiers) requires all practices to prepare and adjust their workflows and technology systems to ensure they are prepared for this major information change in order to avoid payment delays. Oftentimes we iron out the last issues during application and with practice, but you must keep in mind that it can affect and impact your reimbursement and overall revenue.
Our consulting team at MEREM Healthcare Solutions is here to help you with training your front office staff to execute their more technical responsibilities such as processing new MBIs. We offer both on-site and remote training, so there is a solution to fit any size staff and any size budget. The Merem Healthcare Solutions consulting team comes in to help your staff (and your practice) reach their maximum potential at benefit verification and up-front collections.
