Medicare Report: SMART Point Of View
I have recently been assigned a new task. I must run and reconcile a report that compile Medicare accounts that have payment’s rejections from coding perspective. Since this is a new task, I’ve noticed that I am working on the report at the last time and getting behind in my additional duties. I believe the reason I am getting behind and cramming doing the report is because I have not allocated the time to work on it. I want to elaborate a SMART goal setting that allow me to complete my weekly work assignment and the biweekly report.
Goal: To reconcile the Medicare report biweekly on time, and without affecting my regular workflow. This goal fits the SMART model as follows:
Specific: because I am the only person involved. The reason

    In the article Medicare Under Observation, it is mentioned how unfair and ineffective the Affordable Care Act is for senior citizens in the United States. The article emphasizes on a letter written by a Medicare beneficiary who recently had gone to the emergency room to get treatment for a urinary tract infection and ended up having to stay for hours only to be told he was not going to be able to go home and he was being admitted into the hospital for observation which he claims that under the Affordable Care Act law Medicare will not pay anything on. This left him very puzzled and wondering how come he needed to stay over a period of two to three days. This being the case, he would have to be responsible for paying this medical bill in full…

    Medicare Observation

    Thank you both for your comments. As you have both mentioned the Medicare rule for observation is very complex and confusing. The intention of the rule is to set clinical criteria for observation, and rapidly discharge the patient in twenty-four hours. However, this does not always happen. Some observation patients can stay up to ninety-six hours before being discharged or switched to observation status. One of the problems is individual health care organization interprets the Medicare rule differently. Then if the patient had a managed care Medicare carrier, the rules may be different. This makes observation status for an organization nightmare to manage (Hockenberry, Parlato, & Ross, 2014). What I find even worse, observation increases the…
