Reimbursement and Payment Methodologies

Planning is underway for the Fifth Annual Revenue Integrity Symposium, and this is one event you won’t want to miss taking an active role in. This year, we gather October 6–7, 2020, in Westminster (Denver), Colorado. RIS is NAHRI’s national conference—your chance to gather with likeminded professionals from across the country to make lasting connections while learning the latest strategies to excel in your career. And what better way to showcase your passion for revenue integrity and your ever-evolving skillset than getting up on stage and presenting to an audience of your peers.

However, the agency has filed an appeal and the same federal judge declined to strike down cuts for those services planned for 2020.
