Responding to RAC Requests: Strategies for Positive Appeals
Friday, November 2nd
12:30 - 1:45 PM

Synopsis
Physicians are receiving notices for overpayment amounts from Medicare at an alarming rate as a result of a RAC (Recovery Audit Contractor) review.  It is important that each physician understand what type of audit this is, what their rights are for appeal, and what to send in to support a request for redetermination when appropriate.  In this webinar we will discuss:

• What are RAC audits?
• What do I do if I receive a request for records or a request to return money?
• What should I appeal or not?
• How do I decide what to send to support my appeal?
