✔✔ PPS sets predetermined payment rates for specific diagnoses, encouraging hospitals to

manage costs effectively while maintaining care quality.




What are the advantages of value-based reimbursement models?

providers to improve patient outcomes rather than simply increasing service volume.

medical necessity and determining reimbursement.

What is the impact of electronic health records (EHRs) on healthcare reimbursement?


✔✔ EHRs enhance the efficiency and accuracy of billing processes by providing organized

patient information, reducing errors, and streamlining claim submissions.




How does prior authorization affect healthcare services?


✔✔ Prior authorization requires healthcare providers to obtain approval from insurance

companies before delivering specific services, impacting patient access and timely care.




What is the difference between in-network and out-of-network providers?


✔✔ In-network providers have contracts with insurance companies that allow for reduced rates

and higher reimbursement, while out-of-network providers may charge higher fees and have

lower reimbursement rates.

providers to collaborate and manage costs effectively.




What is the significance of the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA)?


✔✔ MACRA aims to reform Medicare payment systems by promoting quality care and

transitioning from fee-for-service to value-based care models.




What are some common reasons for claim rejections in the billing process?

and billing for services not covered by the insurance plan.
