In 2021, the NAHC Board of Directors adopted a statement on diversity, equity, and inclusion. Their promise is for NAHC to help foster the principles of equality and justice and provide our members with the appropriate tools and support to work towards that end.  Take this NAHC survey by June 28, 2023 to support fostering an environment of equity, diversity, and inclusion among palliative care providers. Your input is valuable, and very appreciated.

Has your Medicare administrative contractor (MAC) requested five home health patient records for pre-payment review?

Did the MAC deny payment for any of them?

Hospice Aggregate Cap Report & Overpayment Returns due March 31!

Man folding arms and smiling

Remember that hospices must calculate and report their estimated aggregate Cap to their Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) between three and five months after the October 31 each year. 

That makes the final deadline for the 2015 CAP report March 31, 2016. There's still time to comply. Don't risk payment suspension by filing late.


Recertify Agency Enterprise Identity Management (EIDM) Account or Lose Access

Fingers drumming
If security officers in every hospice and home health agency don't act by March 15, their agencies will be unable to comply with requirements to file cost reports (home health) and to calculate & report estimated aggregate caps (hospice) by March 31 if the hospice’s MAC does not provide the data directly to the hospice. 
Theresa M. Forster, VP for Hospice Policy & Programs, National Association for Home Care & Hospice circulated this message warning agencies how to avoid losing access to Provider Statistical and Reimbursement (PS&R) data necessary to report by ensuring all agency security officers act on the email received from their respective Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC).
