Course Description:

The Medicaid cuts are huge and the longest budget impasse in U.S. history affecting telehealth claims disruptive: what can you do to bolster and/or prepare for the next public health emergency, budget block or possible end to Medicare FFS telehealth medical coverage? Attend this webinar by virtual care billing expert Carol Yarbrough to learn three things you can do today to improve billing, compliance and reimbursement.
