Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Providers say the administration's growing emphasis on billing audits is pushing them to the limit and threatens to increase their costs. Many billing problems stem from simple errors, not fraud, they say. "When you get into the nuts and bolts of some of these programs you realize it's not as easy as taking the overpayment line out of the budget," says Michael Regier, of VHA.
