Thank you for your response great info!
What financial class are they under? Medicare, commercial, etc.
Do you have the bills drop with only the payable codes or does the SNF only pay
what they feel is reimbursable if no agreement is in place? Are you using the
CMS SNF CB file to determine this?
Thank You,
Mary

Mary: At a facility I used to work at, there was an extensive project
for SNF COB.
First: we had a liaison that actually created agreements with the SNF
through our administration to pay the accounts when the occurred. For
these facilities, the accounts remained in Clients and each month when
the client bills printed off, we had a rep in PFS that would follow-up
with the SNF Facilities.
For those facilities that did not have an agreement with the hospital,
we actually created an insurance mnemonic to add to the account as
primary for tracking and follow-up. We had one representative who
worked these accounts and attempted to obtain payment just like any
other collection account from the SNF facility. The really nice thing
about this option (even though it was on the A/R) was that we were able
to track facilities that had larger volumes and work with the liaison to
obtain an agreement. Keep in mind that with 5.4 and higher, there is
the oFB option - therefore, based on the ins mnemonic, you could set up
an "outsource" agency that could even further track these accounts.
Good Luck

Good Morning Everyone,
I am looking for ideas as to how to handle SNF issues. We have several
claims denied for SNF CB, we currently submit a hard copy bill to the
SNF along with the expected APC reimbursement this is very time
consuming. I would like to find a way to automate the process without
putting the money in cash.
Also they take a long time to pay if at all. Any thoughts on how to
motivate them?
