Diego Basagoitia, Chief Compliance Office for Senior PsychCare, and Geri-Psychiatrist, Dr. Tayfun Karakoc, lead an educational session at the annual THCA Convention, September 9, 2024.  This session provided key insights on ways nursing homes can call on their mental health care experts to identify erroneous Schizophrenia coding.  The CMS recently started audits on this diagnosis code, so this session was not only informative but very timely for the conference attendees.  Nursing homes work very hard to achieve their quality stars and SPC wants to make sure they are not put at risk.
