    <description>What's the difference between Home Health and Home Care? How do Medicare Part A and Part B work? How do you order DME for your patient? When and how should you order home oxygen? What's new in the eldercare space?
For physicians, other healthcare professionals, and senior-serving professionals, interacting with Medicare can be complicated and wrought with pitfalls, which, if not understood and managed, will mire your practice in endless paperwork and frustration.
We interview industry experts in every aspect of healthcare, from insurance companies, DME companies, home health agencies, medical providers, and many others, to bring you their real world expertise in the American healthcare system. 
Your hosts are Dr. Amy Schiffman and Dr. Alex Mohseni, two Emergency Medicine physicians who have branched off from traditional Emergency Medicine to explore and build solutions with a particular focus on eldercare and population health.

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Alex and Amy discuss telemedicine and RPM (remote patient monitoring) in the COVID-19 Era. Medicare has published new rules for telemedicine to help cope with the novel coronavirus epidemic. Medicare also published new rules for RPM that went live Jan 1 of 2020. These rules create valuable opportunities for medical providers, especially with COVID-19 quarantine and isolation requirements. &lt;br&gt;
We discuss:&lt;br&gt;
appreciation for our emergency medicine colleagues&lt;br&gt;
original medicare telemedicine telemedicine requirements&lt;br&gt;
Medicare telemedicine geography requirement&lt;br&gt;
Medicare telemedicine originating site requirement&lt;br&gt;
COVID19 Medicare telemedicine reimbursement updates&lt;br&gt;
HHS won't audit preexisting relationship rule, but what about MACs?&lt;br&gt;
Provider licensure requirements for telemedicine&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.cchpca.org/sites/default/files/2020-01/Billing%20Guide%20for%20Telehealth%20Encounters_FINAL.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Fee for service telemedicine billing guide&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Home health telemedicine&lt;br&gt;
RPM (Remote Patient Monitoring) COVID19&lt;br&gt;
Connection between real estate tax code and healthcare opportunities&lt;br&gt;
Why is Medicare paying for RPM&lt;br&gt;
How does remote monitoring work&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/medicare-now-pays-concierge-medicine-subscription-fees-alex-mohseni/?trackingId=sIjYed4wsIb9nGMn0rorQg%3D%3D" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Alex's Concierge Medicine RPM article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
How much does RPM pay&lt;br&gt;
Medicare eVisit non-face-to-face encounters&lt;br&gt;
Role of RPM with addressing loneliness in seniors&lt;br&gt;
Some states' Medicaid programs pay for RPM&lt;br&gt;
Kudos to Dr. Blake McKinney from &lt;a href="https://www.cirrusmd.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;CirrusMD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Telemedicine pictures need to be treated like radiology films&lt;br&gt;
