Radio Recap: Denials and effective physician communication

Where there are documentation holes, denials flood in.

“It’s just amazing how infrequently the doctor is even aware of the denial. If they don’t know they even had a patient who was denied, then he or she can’t fix the documentation in the future,” said Timothy Brundage, MD, CCDS, medical director of Brundage Medical Group and former member of the ACDIS Advisory Board, on the January 10 episode of ACDIS Radio, “Denials and effective physician communication.”
