  Presenter: Kevin Willis - Claims Services, Inc.
  

  Kevin Willis, formerly a National Government Services MSP lecturer and Auditor, is now the Medicare Solutions Manager for Claim Services, Inc. Kevin spent ten years with the Medicare Contractor in the States of Illinois, Indiana , Ohio , and Kentucky . Nearly four of those years were spent as the Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) auditor and educator in those states.

  In May of 2005 Mr. Willis joined Claim Services Inc. and has continued to provide educational speaking engagements throughout the United States for state and national groups such as NAHAM, the HFMA and AAHAM, as well as for individual hospitals. Kevin is also the credited author for HCPro’s “Medicare Secondary Payer Questionnaire Training Toolkit”.

  While most MSP seminars merely regurgitate dry, painfully boring, Federal Regulations, which immediately lose the attention of the attendees who, as a result, gain no insight into the hard to understand realm of MSP compliance; this seminar promises to be both highly instructive and entertaining. This seminar will keep your attention from beginning to end, imparting valuable information throughout.

  Kevin is able to entertain and educate the participants. He puts in plain words the Medicare Regulations as they apply to various aspects of MSP. He will illustrate an appropriate approach to common and not so common Medicare registration and billing scenarios, identify recurrent pitfalls and reveal the best way to avoid them. Kevin also examines the Group Health Plan take-backs that can occur long after the time has past to perfect a Medicare claim, which may result in significant lost revenue for the hospital.
