Patient care hinges in part on adequate and timely information exchange between treating providers

Patient care hinges in part on adequate and timely information exchange between treating providers. Referral and reply letters are common means by which doctors and nurse practitioners exchange information pertinent to patient care. Ensuring that letters meet the needs of letter recipients saves time for clinicians and patients, reduces unnecessary repetition of diagnostic investigations, and helps to avoid patient dissatisfaction and loss of confidence in medical practitioners.

As a Nurse Practitioner (NP) you will need to know the difference between a consultation and a referral for treatment, when ordering and when carrying out consultations or referrals.

Consultations

A consultation is a request for opinion or advice, so that the requestor can manage the patient. A consultation is billed under one of the consultation codes listed in Physicians’ Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) (99241-99245 for outpatient of office consultations). If the NP is the consultant, the NP should document the request for a consultation, the reason for the consult, and the NP’s evaluation and recommendations.

When an NP requests a consultation from another provider, the N P should request “consultation” on the referral form, rather than “referring.”

Referrals:

A referral is made when the referring provider wants to turn the management of the patient over to the referred-to provider, at least for the current complaint.

When a NP refers a patient, the NP should state on the referral form that the NP is “referring the patient for evaluation and treatment.” The referred-to provider will bill an evaluation and management code, rather than a consultation code.

Writing Assignment: Consult: Write up a consult request and include all key elements.

Ms. Perez has been referred to Ms. Wilson FNP-C,APRN, MSN for consultation regarding eczema unresponsive to treatment in the past six months.

Document the evaluation and recommendations for how Ms. Wilson FNP-C,APRN,MSN should deal with the consultation request and bill a consultation code.

The Revenue Cycle Process and REIMBURSEMENT MODELS

Develop a 10-slide PowerPoint presentation with accompanying 10 to 20 minutes of audio targeted at educating new hires at a health care organization about the revenue-cycle process.

INTRODUCTION

The financial health of the health care organization depends upon its ability to generate consistent and recurring funds from the services it provides. Collectively referred to as the revenue cycle (RCM), critical stages in this process include:

  • Patient registration.
  • Collection of demographics and payor source.
  • Rendering services.
  • Documenting services.
  • Establishing charges.
  • Preparing the claim or bill.
  • Submitting the claim.
  • Receiving payment.
  • Managing accounts receivable.

Decreasing payment delays and lost revenues is a point of interest for many health care managers tasked with oversight of the RCM process. Innovative approaches in technology have assisted with streamlining the RCM process and allowed for automation of many processes, resulting in expedited processing and quick remittance.Managed care dollars represent a significant portion of all health care organizations’ reimbursements. As a result, health care organizations seek to establish contracts with large managed care organizations (MCOs). Negotiating and securing contracts with MCOs is important for several reasons, including preserving revenues, enhancing patient satisfaction, and generating additional sources of revenue.All contracts will contain language outlining the administration of the contract along with the payment schedule. While the payment schedule may be seen as the most important element, the terms outlined within the contract are equally as vital to the financial success of the organization.This assessment focuses on the revenue cycle and how technological innovations have impacted reimbursement for health care organizations. You will take on the role of a patient access supervisor. One of your job functions entails educating new hires on the revenue cycle process.
