Chiropractic and the VA Patient 2224

Dr. Kathy Mills-Chang

The Veteran’s Administration has embraced and recognized the good that doctors of chiropractic can do to help our country’s veterans. More and more providers are signing up to participate in this amazing program. However, as with many government programs, there are specific rules to follow. Missteps in this program carry the risk of non-payment and program removal. Documentation requirements are straightforward to implement. In this session, Dr. Mills-Chang will outline everything you need to know to ensure that your VA patient and documentation process is smooth and accurate and that your bills are properly submitted for rapid reimbursement.

Learning Objectives

Because of this session, attendees can expect the following outcomes and learning objectives:

  • Recognize the key documentation requirements and components required to be eligible to treat Veterans Administration referrals
  • Compose documentation that meets these required VA elements, while avoiding missteps most commonly found in denials and audits
  • Appraise and self-audit the VA process from referral through discharge, looking for key factors known to be often missing, and understand what to do to correct the deficiency
