NEW THIS YEAR!
OASIS Payment: The Payment Questions and Your Coding
Accuracy
This half-day intensive workshop, presented by Lisa
Selman-Holman, will be offered ONLY in Indianapolis -
June 5 & Nashville -

New PPS rules make the importance of an accurately conducted
and reported assessment even more critical to full reimbursement.
In certain situations, CMS could pay more than $1,000 for
a late-episode patient.
But what’s the magic combination of assessment and reporting to receive the best benefit? This workshop will lead you through the payment questions and how they relate back to coding.
Think about these facts:
- M0250 only applies to therapy at home, and it can be combined for reimbursement with Dysphagia, Skin or Ortho categories for case-mix points, but only in certain circumstances. What are they?
- M0445-M0488 deal with wounds and their status. Only some of the questions affect payment. All of them are intricate, and the link between knowing the guidelines of what constitutes the stage or status of a wound and how to apply that to the ICD-9-CM code and the OASIS form is crucial.
- The functional domain questions have taken on incredible importance for payment and documentation needs.
Attending this half-day OASIS workshop means you will walk away with:
- An understanding of the new payment questions, including M0110, M0470, M0520 and M0800.
- In-depth look at wounds and their staging with relation to OASIS and guidelines from NPUAP and WOCN.
- A look at the OASIS questions that most impact payment: the proper use of M0230, M0240 and M0246, with a special emphasis on M0246.
BONUS: You’ll get an OASIS tool that breaks down the combinations of payment and M0 questions affiliated with case-mix diagnoses.
