Today, OutcomesAssessment.org announced its support of an exciting new initiative by ProviderLAW Corporation – The Medical Necessity Project.  Says Kim Christensen, DC, Founder of OutcomesAssessment.org:  “This new project is so needed and will really help a lot of providers.  It basically identifies the ‘missing legal pieces’ when it comes to medical necessity, pieces that we providers haven’t known.   If you want to see what I mean, check out this sample appeal letter.  The letter shows how all of this can so easily come together and save providers a lot of money.”   

So by way of example, as part of the Medical Necessity Project, ProviderLAW focuses on a protocol which it refers to as the “Assignment & Lien Protocol.”   Says ProviderLAW President Keith Pendleton, JD, “A well-defined Assignment & Lien Protocol not only greatly helps to prevent and correct medical necessity denials, it helps to resolve 30+ major collection problems at the same time.”  ProviderLAW offers first-time providers free 15-30 minute consults to discuss these topics further.
