Episode 242 | All Things Medicare: Credentialing, Billing, and Audit Proof Documentation with Gabrielle Juliano-Villani

The Group Practice Exchange

Are you overwhelmed by the idea of taking Medicare in your group practice?

You’re definitely not alone - so many group practice owners don’t accept Medicare because they’re confused about billing, CPT codes, Medicare documentation requirements, or need help streamlining their billing to maximize profits.

That’s why in this episode, Gabrielle Juliano-Villani and I talk about all the ins and outs of integrating Medicare into a group practice. We explored the potential hurdles and advantages, equipping you with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about accepting Medicare.

Here's a rundown of what we covered:

• Medicare basics: We started by breaking down the basics of Medicare, including who it serves and how it operates.

• Administrative considerations: Gabrielle provided insights into the administrative side of Medicare, such as enrollment processes and compliance requirements.

• Clinical implications: We discussed the clinical implications of accepting Medicare, including how it affects client care and therapist workload.

• Aligning with practice vision: Gabrielle gave an overview of how to assess if accepting Medicare aligns with your practice's mission and values.

This episode is one you don’t want to skip if you’ve been considering accepting Medicare in your group practice.
