In our redesigned 2018 IRF PPS Workshop, you'll thoroughly review the inpatient rehabilitation facility prospective payment system, optimal coding of the IRF-PAI impairment group codes and FIM scores, Quality Indicators, and best practices for the PPS Coordinator. We'll use case studies to practice IRF-PAI completion and ensure PPS coordinators understand all items. You'll get valuable information on using eRehabData Outcomes Reports to analyze your performance and improve your quality and reimbursement.

The workshops will be presented by Lisa Werner of Fleming-AOD Consulting Services.

It's here! The 2017 edition of our popular IRF-PAI Coding Reference Guide offers information to help physicians document with greater specificity; PPS coordinators complete the IRF-PAI; and pre-admission screeners identify qualifying patient conditions. The guide includes common IGC/Dx combinations; top tiering comorbidities; top diagnoses; and top IGC/Dx 60% Rule exclusions (including late-breaking updates from the FY2018 IRF-PPS Proposed Rule), plus Coding Notes. It's an easy to carry, easy to use, durable pocket reference.

Managing Outcomes with eRehabData

The Fleming-AOD Pre-Admission Screening (PAS) Tool available through eRehabData® is a mature electronic screening form that has been refined with user collaboration. The PAS Tool is available for both online and offline completion, and includes an email notification system for use with mobile devices. It seamlessly integrates with the IRF-PAI in eRehabData® and informs the Referrals Outcomes reports.

The PAS Tool is designed to satisfy the requirements for pre-admission screening documentation outlined in the 2010 IRF-PPS Final Rule and in the 2010 revisions to the Medicare Benefit Policy Manual.

If you are using the eRehabData Patient Satisfaction System and are looking for an easier way to get your completed survey data into the system, we can help! As a complement to our scannable survey forms, we are now offering a survey scanning service.

Simply collect and mail your completed scannable survey forms to the eRehabData offices and we will scan and upload the surveys, complete with patient comments, for you. Call us at (202) 588-1766 for more information.
