Description
CMS Medicare site visits are now a standard part of screening and program integrity. Many providers are being marked “non-operational” not because they are fraudulent, but because they are unprepared for the unannounced visit: locked doors, missing signage, inconsistent hours, or staff who don’t know how to respond. A failed visit can lead to payment holds, deactivation, or revocation—even for legitimate practices.
This webinar will walk you through what really happens during these visits and how to make sure your location looks “audit-ready” every day.
