Application Question(s):

• The patient has two qualifying diagnoses. How do you determine which one is primary under PDGM, and what happens to reimbursement if you sequence them wrong?
• Describe your experience with PDGM billing. How does OASIS documentation affect claim grouping and HIPPS code assignment?
• What is the difference between ICD-10 primary and secondary diagnosis sequencing in home health, and why does it matter?
• You have a completed visit, but the clinician's note is late. Do you hold the claim or submit and correct it later? What are the risks either way?
• A visit was completed, but the physician's order on file doesn't match the discipline billed. Do you submit, hold, or correct — and what exactly needs to happen before that claim goes out?
• What do you know about the RAP process, and how does it affect cash flow in the first 30 days of an episode?
