Medical Billing … Foot in the Door?
Saturday, October 9, at 4:30pm-5:30 pm
You may already have your foot in the door with a medical billing intermediary for COVID-19 vaccines. Kick that door open and take a look around. Pharmacists in a growing number of states have the authority to order labs, administer a point-of-care test, and initiate or modify drug therapy – either in their scope of practice or under a collaborative practice agreement. Come learn what success looks like for a pharmacy that submits claims to patients' medical insurance for documenting patient evaluations and treatment plans for HIV PrEP and PEP and immunizations.
