It’s that time of year again! Medicare has finalized their highly anticipated 2021 Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) Payment System Final Rule. So, what’s next? Each ASC, and Physician who practices at an ASC, should review the ruling to see how it impacts their business and their bottom line.
Some things to consider:
It’s also the ideal time to upload the new Medicare fee schedules into your billing system. Keep in mind, you may have several other contracts affected by the Medicare reimbursement rate so It’s a great time to review all fee schedules in your billing system.
If you haven’t been uploading your fee schedules into your billing system, don’t worry! Now is a great time to start.
