Our esteemed presenters will not only showcase the optimal utilisation of QuickCode but also unveil novel approaches to workflow optimisation, along with the clinical advantages of implementing automation for billing QA.

Key points in this webinar:
- Compliance Concerns: With heavy fines looming over incorrect charges, ensuring compliance is paramount. Doctors' referrer codes linked to charges hold them accountable, underscoring the need for precise billing practises.
- Correction Challenges: Incorrect charges often lead to bounced-back submissions for corrections before payment, highlighting the importance of accuracy from the outset.
- Retrospective Billing: Sites have the capability to retrospectively bill up to two years, necessitating meticulous review and correction processes.
- Staffing Dynamics: With Radiation Therapists shouldering both treatment planning and delivery, efficient use of their time is critical. Given the current staffing shortages, any delays or errors in billing can exacerbate resource constraints.
- Crucial Role of Billing Clerks: Billing clerks play a pivotal role, requiring extensive training to navigate MBS submissions and charge reviews effectively.
- Speeding Up Payments: Doctors often face delays in receiving payments, with monthly submissions being the norm. Streamlining this process could significantly expedite payment cycles, benefiting both practitioners and institutions.
