The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Inspector General (OIG) reported in November 2022 that many providers are not complying with Medicare’s billing rules for advance care planning services.

In this episode, Husch Blackwell’s Meg Pekarske, Andrew Brenton, and Zaina Niles break down the OIG report and what the key takeaways are for hospices.
