Tanguay to Speak at NHIA 2010

Rock-Pond’s president, Pete Tanguay, will present “Understanding and Reducing the Costs of Billing and Getting Paid” on April 13 at the 2010 NHIA Annual Conference in Dallas, TX. Originally Pete was asked by the NHIA educational committee on cost effective use of technology in a home infusion department.  He pointed out that technology is only as good as the problem it solves and understanding and reducing reimbursement costs is very high on the priority list of home infusion providers.

The preliminary course outline is as follows:  “The reimbursement process begins with a patient referral and ends with payment for services, or at least this is the plan. There are specific costs associated with this process and additional costs incurred when you don’t do each area well. This program will present a comprehensive reimbursement model along with specific metrics and recommendations to follow in order to minimize the cost and time it takes to get paid for services. It will emphasize the advantage of using technology to measure and streamline your reimbursement process.The reimbursement process begins with a patient referral and ends with payment for services, or at least this is the plan.
