SNF Seminars

Thank you for your interest in our seminars.

We have redesigned our Medicare Made Easy for SNF for 2011 and have renamed the seminar "Mastering Medicare: A Practical Guide to Succeeding in Skilled Nursing". This seminar has reverted back to the original 2 day format that had been so successful for us. Trying to contain all of the relevant information to one day proved extremely difficult once the MDS 3.0 came into effect in October last year. So we have designed the 2 day program to provide all of the relevant information for delivery of Part A services to day one. This one day program is a stand alone program and s perfect for the nurses in your facility. Attending both days is not necessary for your MDS coordinator, so that ability is now available and encouraged. day 2 focuses on the documentation requirements to support skilled therapy services under both Parts A and B, both services coming under more and more scrutiny.

We also have a one day program that we are providing in conjunction with our Part B documentation workshop which is perfect for any Medicare provider. "Tests, Measures and Questionnaires; Making Assessments Work for YOU" is a program focused on providing the participant with usable tools which will enhance the documentation and support the necessity of skilled therapy services. This program is most appropriate for the Physical Therapist and Assistant, although will be of use to Rehab Managers and Administrators. Details are available through the links below.

Last year we had several providers host and sponsor our seminars, why don't you think about that?

Bookmark this page as we will be introducing new seminars in the coming months. You may also want to sign up for our e-zine newsletter that will keep you up to date with not only our services but "News and Rules" that affect the Medicare Provider.
