Mitigate Fiscal Risks in Clinical Trials: Coverage Analysis, Budgeting and Billing Compliance
Instructor:
Marina Malikova
Product ID: 705687
Training Level: Intermediate
- Duration: 60 Min
Why Should You Attend:
This session is focused on processes and approaches to increase fiscal return and mitigate fiscal compliance risk for clinical trials. The ability to develop robust budgets, ensure billing compliance and adherence to CMS regulations for clinical trials remains a challenge for many clinical sites, sponsors and contract research organizations (CROs) . Lack of fiscal forecasting and unspecified billing compliance practices associated with clinical trials increases the risks of fiscal audits. A risk- based approach requires not only a strategy but tools to define key indicators to measure specific risks. This session is focused on strategies for covering true costs related to clinical research and distinguishing them from routine care charges, and providing methodologies to avoid false claims and/or wrongful billing.
Areas Covered in the Webinar:
- Budgeting in clinical research
- Learn how to perform Medicare Coverage Analysis
- Define studies qualified for insurance reimbursement for experimental drugs and devices
- Review device classification and applicable categories of devices for insurance reimbursement within clinical trial
- Review different charges in clinical research (research –related versus routine care, “billable to insurance)
- Fiscal forecasting
- Financial management on clinical research
- Fiscal and billing compliance risk mitigation strategies
