Each DMERC has a list of webinars for education. I would recommend that
someone new complete:
Medicare 101
Medicare 102
Documentation Requirements and
Prosthetic Documentation Requirements (since you guys focus on prosthetics)
Here is a link to their education area of their website:

Check with Medicare. They have webinars. If you use a third party for your
electronic billing, they sometimes have webinars.. We use Zirmed and they
do.
The manual that was just given to us at the AOPA Billing conference in Vegas
last week is EXCELLENT. See if you can get one of those as well.
If anyone else offers up any other suggestions, please let me know.
Good luck.

Hello List
Thank you in advance for any assistance. Does anyone know of online courses
or webinars that we could
send new front office personnel to, that covers O & P Intake and billing
requirements as they pertain to CMS/Medicare.
Thank you again.
