Professionals
As the Quality Improvement Organization for South Dakota, SDFMC depends upon the cooperation and participation of health care professionals. Our physician peer review activities are performed by many physician reviewers comprising a variety of specialties.
A recent regulatory addition pertaining to the review process is the Benefit Improvement and Protection Act (BIPA). This law permits Medicare beneficiary to request an appeal of non-coverage of service notices issued by hospices, home health agencies and nursing homes. Details on this new law, including sample non-coverage notices and protocols, can be found on the BIPA link.
