Join Us March 9 at the OAMES Medicaid Training Seminar in Columbus

OAMES is proud to continue this exceptional forum for learning and networking focused exclusively on HME policy and billing issues affecting the Medicaid fee-for-service (FFS) and managed care programs.  The OAMES Medicaid Training Seminar is held in collaboration with the Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) and the Ohio Association of Health Plans and provides the only source for HME-specific training by Ohio Medicaid staff and plan representatives.

The Spring Seminar agenda features the following:

• Industry update focused on the association’s primary work today including issues related to the proposed State budget, Medicaid, the Medicare bidding program, Cures Act rate adjustments for July-Dec 2016 and more;
• Medicaid fee-for-service (FFS) sessions on policy and prior authorization issues including the recently implemented wheelchair rule and the latest on the five-year rule filing process for over two dozen DME policies;
• Representatives from the External Business Relations section will be on hand to present an update on various program initiatives;

• Managed care presentations with both traditional and MyCare Ohio plans including a panel discussion and breakout sessions. ** Private appointments are not being scheduled in advance but meeting space is available on-site for anyone wishing to meet with plan representatives throughout the afternoon;
