I too worked at one time for one of the big chains.They had a formula that you had to
have a percent of the med a days billed by first of next month or you were spoken to.I
was able to show them that they were losing money by not setting the ard to capture
rehab.As a nurse I greatly resent billers telling me what to do.I feel if you are the
person responsible for setting ard for PPS,you need to capture the best reimbursement
for the facility.
