Documenting and Coding Risk

for Cost Evaluation in Quality Contracts and MIPS

with E/M Coding Review

Presented by: Karen Scott, MEd, RHIA, CCS-P, CPC, FAHIMA

Medicare has long used risk adjustment of patient populations from diagnostic coding data to determine compensation to commercial payers for administration of Medicare Advantage plans, setting the precedent for integrating cost into physician compensation.

Risk adjustment is now a real factor in setting physician compensation not only for Medicare MIPS scoring, but in setting cost expectations for shared savings in ACO contracts. There is a direct relationship between better diagnostic coding and shared savings in value-based (Trilogy) contracts.

This seminar, designed specifically for physicians and non-physician providers will present examples of risk stratification for specific disease processes to discuss proper documentation for coding risk adjustment and quality measure reporting for MIPS and ACO contracts.
