THE GROUP REGISTRATION/ONLINE TRAINING ALTERNATIVE

By arranging to license online group access to the Medicare RAC or Readmissions Certificate Program, health care providers subject to RAC audits and potential readmissions penalties can implement an organization-wide online Certificate Program. The organization's training coordinator can assign and track online participation. Successful completion of the training can be evidenced by passing the post conference training examination.
