Webinar: How to Prepare Your Lab for 2018: Essential Insights into New Payer Challenges with Lab Audits, Patient Billing, Out-of-Network Claims, and Heightened Scrutiny of Lab Sales Practices

Government and private health plans are taking a hard line in 2018 to ensure that pathology groups and clinical labs are complying with new laws and regulations, and managed care contract terms. The new year will bring significant changes to patient billing practices, out-of-network claims, lab audit initiatives, and lab sales protocols. These challenges all boil down to one thing: tougher actions by government and private payers which add up to negative financial consequences for the nation’s pathology groups.
