Provider-Based Conversions

Our team is composed of experts in converting office-based practices into hospital-outpatient departments. The goal of these conversions is to improve the quality of healthcare for patients and take advantage of higher Medicare reimbursement in the HOPD setting. If a private practice is converted to provider-based, the hospital bills the technical component under the OPPS which accounts for a hospital’s higher expenses and overhead. Under these arrangements, there are certain requirements regarding ownership, location, staffing, financial integration, patient awareness, etc. We help our clients throughout the entire conversion process and offer or expertise in the following areas:

• Joint Commission requirements

• Split billing

• Professional service agreements

• Medical record integration

• Operations

• Financial analysis
