| Observation Services Training Handbook (Pack of 5) Janet L. Blondo, LCSW-C, MSW, CMAC, ACM, CCM, C-ASWCM, ACSW Observation services, from billing for observation to defining services, have been an ongoing pain point for hospitals. CMS recently compounded the challenge with the introduction of the Notice of Observation Treatment and Implication for Care Eligibility (NOTICE) Act, which requires hospitals to use the Medicare Outpatient Observation Notice (MOON) to notify patients of observation status both verbally and in writing. The Observation Services Training Handbook, reviewed by respected case manager Janet L. Blondo, LCSW-C, MSW, CMAC, ACM, CCM, C-ASWCM, ACSW, goes past the definition of observation and discusses billing for observation, coverage of services, and counting of time. This handbook includes relevant information for physicians and is also useful for UR and case management, in addition to hospital staff members who need information about billing. |
