Education and Tools

A major focus of the URMC Compliance Program is to support effective documentation and accurate billing for physician/provider services. Specifically, the Compliance Office

• Educates providers and billing personnel about regulations for teaching physicians and documentation/billing for E&M services and clinical procedures
• Develops tools which assist providers with efficient, effective documentation and accurate billing
• Audits/monitors inpatient and outpatient records for compliance with regulations and appropriate selection of billing level
• Enables employees to report non-compliant activities without fear of retribution. For more information about this program, see the Integrity Helpline web page.
