Bass, Berry & Sims attorney Anna Grizzle provided comments for an article summarizing the impact of a recent HHS Office of Inspector General report, finding that more than 80 percent of chiropractic services were improperly billed to Medicare in 2013. While more analysis of the report’s findings are warranted, Anna warns that “chiropractors should view the OIG report as a wake-up call and take appropriate actions to properly bill Medicare claims and prepare for potential audits.”
The full article, “Are Chiropractors Billing Medicare Accurately?” was published by Bloomberg BNA on October 20, 2016, and is available online.
