Compliance Education

HSMN evaluates Physician Practice against the guidelines suggested by the Office of Inspector General but more importantly against what also makes good economic sense for small and large practices.

  • HSMN carefully reviews those areas of concern, coding and billing, most likely to be trouble spots
  • HSMN reviews results with the clinicians and support staff and drafts an education plan along with suggestions for process changes.
  • HSMN is painfully aware of the economics of small practices and the risk/reward ratio of improvements when margins are thin.
  • HSMN has built materials for use by the staff in both electronic and manual form.
  • HSMN has been very effective in bringing staff together and going over cases, processes and systems, using specific instances as examples for process improvement.
  • HSMN does not use a “Canned” approach to physician practices; rather it evaluates what is needed and only what is needed for success in compliance.
  • HSMN is well known for knowledge transfer: making sure that the client’s support staff can carry on in the absence of the consultants.
    • HSMN tool kit includes many examples of Compliance Education simplified for the level of need identified in its assessment of practice needs.
    • HSMN has married the needs analysis to the materials necessary for the practice.
