I want to make you aware of this service that I have been providing to my customers …. Applying for Meaningful Use incentive dollars. I have been very successful at quickly obtaining the first year Adoption / Implementation/ Upgrade (AIU) incentive payments from the State, for Medi-Cal service providers.

This incentive is $21,250 for each of your MD’s and NP’s (Doctor of Medicine & Nurse Practitioner), even if they are contractors and/or part-time, in the first year.

You are running out of time to apply for this first year incentive, if you do not apply before the fall 2016 cut-off, then you are unable to apply for the remaining 5 payments, for a total opportunity of $63,750.00 per eligible provider.

Also, you are currently being penalized for non-participation via Medicare reimbursement reductions. See my BLOG on this topic HERE.

Trying to do this yourself will be VERY time consuming and VERY frustrating. and unlikely to result in meeting the deadline and receiving the payments. There are hundreds of documents and three websites chocked full of information, but nothing that simply points you to the step by step process. I don't say this to discourage you, but only to warn you. It took me hundreds of dedicated hours to find my way through this maze!

I have a proven process and step by step documentation.My services essentially pay for themselves! Here are the steps necessary that I will help you with, to enable quick receipt of these incentive funds:

·  Planning & Training - an executive overview of the process and timeline; training ONLY one staff member to complete the required data entry (including step by step training materials);

·  Provider Benefit Reassignment - coaching for the provider communication and benefit reassignment steps, including consultation, templates, and best practices; phone and email support to the provider contact;

·  Provider Account Creation - facilitation of the initial provider account creation steps, both at federal and state level; phone and email support to the staff member; coordination with State and Federal help desks;

·  Provider Registration - facilitation of the provider registration steps, both at federal and state level; phone and email support to the staff member; coordination with State and Federal help desks;

·  QUALITY rEVIEW phase - a complete review of each provider registration to avoid submission errors;

·  Provider Final Attestation - facilitation and production of the final attestation documents;

·  State Approval - coordination with State analysts during their approval phase;

·  PAYMENT– assistance with budget assumptions, and tracking and reporting on payment status.

So, don’t hesitate, call me now to start the application process and receive your incentive this year!
