In this session, resident provider enrollment experts Kelly Grahovac, Denise Leard, Lisa Wells, and Tim Safley will explain how to complete and report changes on your enrollment file to ensure interruptions to operations and cash flow don’t affect your HME business. Getting your business accredited is only step one. Learn how you can prepare for your CMS site inspection and pass with flying colors!
