What are two words no chiropractor wants to hear?

"MEDICARE AUDIT"

Call Dr. Ronald M. Boggs D.C. and get help today!   248-569-7333
There's no need to fear a medicare audit, not if you're prepared like I was. I speak from experience.....   

I'm Dr. Ronald Boggs D.C. and I survived a medicare audit.  I'd like to share my success with you.

In November of 2008 I was notified by CMS that I was the target of a CERT review. CMS requested countless dates of service for several of my patients serviced from six to nine months back. My office had to submit 411 pages of documentation to CMS. In the end guess what? 

                           I PASSED MY MEDICARE AUDIT! 

                             My documentation was so thorough that my name has
                                been removed from the list of future audits. 


                                 I CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN FOR YOU TOO!

What made it possible? The answer is simple: I was prepared.  Now I'd like to share what I know with you - to help you prepare for an audit when it happens, and it will happen, eventually. Our profession has a 67% error rate. That translates into a high probability that you aren't documenting properly. 


Medicare Fact #1: Chiropractic has one of the highest documentation error rates in healthcare.

We are targets for Medicare audits for two reasons. Nobody has agreed on what the audit standards should be and what makes for "good" record keeping. Secondly, audits are often conducted by professionals who though in noble professions are not chiropractors. Maybe they are nurses or other medical personnel--or consultants. Smart though they be, they don't possess a keen understanding of the standards chiropractors follow--nor do they particularly care for what we do.


Medicare Fact #2: Medicare Policy states, "The [chiropractic] provider is responsible to know the rules and regulations that apply to all services he/she bills to the Medicare program.”

You have choices: Do nothing and wait for an audit or educate yourself by contacting me for a consultation. The first half hour is FREE. I'll walk you through the requirements that you must meet and help
ensure that you are meeting the CMS documentation standards.

Medicare Fact #3: CMS has the goal of auditing every chiropractor in the country regardless of how big or small the practice is.  

A word about Fees: Fee structures vary as do the clients I work with.  I will review your current files and share my office forms with you. These forms are accepted by CMS for documentation and will help you determine if the treatment you propose justifies the use of the AT modifier. Remember the first half hour is FREE. Once we meet and determine your needs, we'll establish a timeline and workable payment schedule. 

Clients keep me extremely busy so to ensure prompt service, make an inquiry today. I'll respond within 48 hours.
