Audit Survival Guide for Optometrists
On March 21, 2022, Partner Jody Erdfarb will be speaking at the Connecticut Association of Optometrists‘ COPE approved virtual CE event, “Audit Survival Guide for Optometrists.”
This webinar will address what optometrists should know to survive an audit and provide information about the different types of audits, with a focus on the Connecticut Medicaid audit process. It will describe in detail the Medicaid audit process as set forth in statute, from receipt of the initial audit notification letter from the Department of Social Services (DSS) through the judicial appeal process, including the auditor’s record review and the opportunity to respond and rebut any adverse findings. Professionals will share, from their experiences, practical tips and informal ways to work with auditors to get the best result possible. Guidance regarding negotiating disallowances, challenging sampling and extrapolation methodology, and drafting responses will be offered. Finally, common recent audit findings will be discussed to help providers not only respond to such findings, but also avoid similar pitfalls before DSS initiates an audit.
