Facility hospice training classes scheduled

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan has scheduled two facility hospice training classes for the 2013 calendar year.

The classes were designed to offer a clear and simple overview of the hospice billing procedures and guidelines. They’ll also provide an overview of web-DENIS features that will assist you in navigating through our online manual. 

To help make the class a success, we’re asking you to submit your questions in advance. You can submit your questions online when you register or send them to your provider consultant.   

You have two dates to choose from:

  • Monday, Aug. 19, 2013
  • Thursday, Oct. 31, 2013

Here’s other information you’ll need to know:

  • Classes will run from 9 a.m. to noon. They may extend later or end earlier, depending on participant questions.
  • Both classes will be in the Midnight Training Room M at Lyon Meadows, 53200 Grand River Ave., New Hudson
  • These sessions do not offer continuing education units and do not include clinically specific subject matter.
  • You will not need to bring any additional reference materials or manuals.

To register, send an email to SEfacilityeducationregistration@bcbsm.com and indicate your name, facility and date of the class you wish to attend. You will receive a confirmation within 72 hours of registering. It’s important to register so we may contact you in the event of a change or if the training is cancelled.
