“Wound Care Under Fire: How Providers Can Reduce Audit Risk and Survive the New Enforcement Landscape”
Tuesday, September 15 | 8:00–9:00 a.m. | Grand Ballroom C
Wound care providers are facing a sharp rise in audits and overpayment demands as CMS contractors, payors, and federal regulators scrutinize documentation, billing, and product usage more closely than ever. Claims are increasingly denied as experimental, tied to alleged skilled nursing facility billing errors, or flagged for improper product use, often triggering significant recoupments even when the underlying care was appropriate.
Guillermo will discuss what’s driving this enforcement wave, how providers can strengthen documentation to meet auditor expectations, and practical strategies for responding to an audit in a way that limits financial exposure.
