Reimbursement

Microscope has professionals who have extensive knowledge relative to State and Federal medical reimbursement issues that significantly impact the operational decisions of a healthcare facility. We address many reimbursement topics and leverage our experience to ensure that your organization takes full advantage of every available opportunity.

Emergency Preparedness

It’s important for healthcare organizations to have contingencies in place to quickly react to unforeseen events. Microscope can review your Emergency Operations Plan for compliance with CMS Emergency Preparedness Regulatory Requirements and help you improve your first response performance.

Financial and Operational Performance

In today’s ever-changing fast-paced healthcare environment, Microscope aligns with clients to create and implement solutions that allow them the freedom to focus on their strategic objectives. Regardless of your organization’s size, our team of experts can provide a variety of financial consulting services which utilize our financial and accounting expertise to help you achieve your goals.

Continuing Care & Long Term Care

Continuing care facilities continue to navigate through the ever-changing healthcare landscape that directly impacts facility reimbursement and overall care delivery services for the elderly population. Microscope provides the consulting expertise to assist facilities to be ever vigilant in their knowledge of industry standards, be able to examine current systems in place and be better prepared to evaluate and improve all aspects of clinical, operational and financial excellence.

Fraud Prevention

Assessing your current internal controls, policies, procedures and the competency of your finance department is essential in order to minimize and detect inappropriate activities. Microscope makes recommendations to enhance your organization’s ability to minimize and detect inappropriate activities. If a more detailed investigation is necessary, we use techniques and provide a report with recommendations to strengthen your internal controls.

Revenue Cycle

Revenue streams from Medicare and Medicaid are difficult to predict as both the Federal and State governments are having difficulties with their own fiscal operations, resulting in reduced reimbursement to healthcare providers. Microscope ensures that your facility is maximizing the reimbursement available to acute and long-term care providers, as well as physician practices. Our talented pool of dedicated specialists understand the complex operations of healthcare organizations, uniquely qualifying us to assist you in reimbursement maximization and planning.

340B Drug Program Compliance & Optimization

As regulatory scrutiny over the 340B Program has recently been intensified by HRSA, covered entities must utilize independent audits as part of fulfilling their ongoing obligation to ensure compliance. Microscope’s experienced team and compliance services allow covered entities to reinforce operations under the 340B Program, recommend areas for improvement and help to prepare for future program integrity audits.

We Put A Detailed Focus On Your Organization.
