Meet Kathy. She verifies coverage at the desk, gets the group number, repeats the group number, and discovers the group number is not actually the plan.

We made this video because it’s funny. We also made it because the useful part is painfully true: verify coverage before the visit, not at the desk.

Before the patient arrives:
• Confirm the plan is active for the date of service.
• Match the member ID to the correct payer and product.
• Check prior authorization before the patient is in the room.
• Keep the reference number, call date, and representative’s name with the chart.

Don’t be a Kathy. Watch the video, then see our tips post for the full checklist.

October 1 did not create one Medicaid change. It opened a state-by-state divide, and exposed how much implementation depends on administrative capacity.

Beginning October 1, federal matching funds for full-scope Medicaid and CHIP end for affected noncitizen categories. Each state must decide whether to continue that coverage with state-only dollars or end it. Federal reimbursement for emergency care for uninsured immigrants also falls. Where state-only coverage is not funded, hospitals and practices may absorb more uncompensated emergency care.

Montana begins enforcing its Medicaid work and community-engagement requirement October 1, months ahead of the federal January 1, 2027 deadline. Nebraska and Arkansas are already moving through earlier rollout and verification steps.

What do the early-moving states have in common? Not necessarily the toughest policy. Their systems were further along in income, status, and documentation verification. States that waited are now building that machinery.

For a practice, this changes the front desk. A patient may need different documentation at renewal. Eligibility may need to be checked before each visit, not assumed from the last appointment. If coverage changes during treatment, the practice needs a clear process for authorization, payer communication, patient notices, and unpaid balances.

One example: a well-child or prenatal visit scheduled under full-scope Medicaid may require a fresh eligibility check and confirmation of whether a state-only or other coverage pathway remains available before the next appointment.

The practical work this month is straightforward: identify patients in affected eligibility groups, confirm your state’s implementation date, and learn whether your state is funding state-only coverage. The policy is decided at the state level. The patient experience is shaped at the practice level.

General information, not billing, coding, legal, or reimbursement advice. Confirm requirements with your payer and a qualified professional.

Meet Kathy. She's the star of our new video, and she's having a rough one.

Kathy verifies coverage when the patient is already at the desk. She gets the group number, repeats the group number, and discovers the group number isn't actually the plan.

We made the video because it's funny. We're posting this because it isn't.

Don't be a Kathy. Before the visit:

1. Confirm the plan is active for the date of service, not just the day you call. For a January appointment, start asking in October.
2. Match the member ID to the correct payer and product. A group number is not a plan; one group can carry several products with different rules.
3. Check prior authorization before the patient is in the room. If a payer drops it, check again: dropping prior authorization does not drop medical-necessity review.
4. Save the reference number, call date, and representative's name with the chart.

Verify before the visit, not at the desk. The patient should never have to wait on hold or hear the mess.

Someone on the block put the inflatable skeleton up on October 1.

It's 91 degrees. By noon it's face-down in the grass, and the Yorkie has inspected the whole scene and filed no report.

Florida’s July 1 prior-authorization changes matter most in the small moments of practice life, not in the headlines.

For small and mid-size practices, insurers and utilization review entities now have to provide:

• A secure, interactive electronic prior-authorization process that allows supporting documents to be submitted.
• Clear online publication of prior-authorization requirements and clinical criteria.
• Public and written notice to affected providers at least 60 days before adding or changing requirements.
• Protection against denying a claim for a service that was already authorized, except under defined circumstances.

Here is the practical shift: if a payer adds a required clinical note for a procedure, the front desk should not have to discover that change through trial and error, or through a denial. The requirement should be published and communicated in advance.

And if a payer approves a procedure, that approval now carries more weight. A later claim cannot simply be denied because someone applied a new checklist after the fact.

This reaches beyond billing. A well-care workflow may still require eligibility and benefit checks, but staff should be able to locate the payer’s published criteria instead of relying on an unwritten checklist. When a new physician joins a practice, credentialing and onboarding teams can also include the payer’s current prior-authorization rules from the start.

For patients, the intended result is fewer administrative surprises between an approved service and the care they were expecting.

October 1 is not just a calendar turn. It’s the day healthcare workflows discover whether anyone updated the calendar.

I’m checking three things today:

1) Code references and templates: Confirm the current ICD-10-CM update is reflected wherever diagnosis choices are stored or printed.

2) Payer requirements and effective dates: Check each relevant payer’s current policy, authorization, and coverage rules instead of assuming every change started on the same date.

3) Appointment eligibility: Recheck patients whose appointments fall near a coverage or policy change, especially when the plan, state, or effective date may differ.

One concrete example: If an old diagnosis option remains in a template, a staff member may select an outdated code. If the patient’s plan also changed effective October 1, the appointment may need a fresh eligibility check before the patient arrives. The practice avoids preventable surprises, and the patient gets clearer information before care begins.

My October 1 rule: update the references, verify the dates, and don’t let a recurring appointment disguise a new coverage reality. Calendars are innocent. Workflows are not.

A billing exception arrives at 9:07. Before it can move, someone asks the same person to check a credentialing renewal. Then a back-office scheduling issue appears.

Nothing looks broken. The practice is open, phones are answered, and work is moving, through one human routing layer.

That arrangement carries an invisible cost:
• Decisions wait when that person is in a meeting, out sick, or pulled into patient care.
• Colleagues learn to interrupt instead of using a clear path.
• Exceptions become memory tests.
• Small delays compound into rework, missed follow-up, and avoidable billing friction.

The fix is not to make that person faster. It is to make the route visible.

For each recurring exception, document:
1. Who owns the decision.
2. What information must travel with it.
3. What happens when the owner is unavailable.
4. Where the final answer is recorded.

Credentialing, billing, and practice-management work become less fragile when knowledge can move without waiting for one person to translate every edge case.

If that person is absent tomorrow, which decision stops first?

The best days in a medical practice are defined by how much more time becomes available for people.

That’s what this commercial is about: the day belongs to you again.

We support medical practices in Florida and nationwide with credentialing, billing, back-office administration, and well care services, so the work around care is handled with the same intention as the care itself.

The credentialing renewal date nobody tracks.

Most practices are diligent about the initial enrollment. Very few are diligent about what comes after: revalidation, re-attestation, and keeping the practice data current.

Here's what happens in the gap: a revalidation notice goes to an old mailing address, the payer doesn't hear back, and the enrollment is deactivated. Nothing changes on your end. Claims still go out. Then the denials start, retroactively, and now you're appealing payments for dates of service going back months.

Three things worth checking this week:

1. Who owns the credentialing calendar, by name, not by department.
2. The mailing address on file with each payer. If it's the office manager who left in 2023, fix it today.
3. The CAQH attestation window. It lapses quietly, and payers pull from it.

Put the renewal dates in the same place you keep the licenses. Not a spreadsheet in someone's inbox.

If you don't know when your next revalidation is due, that's the answer to the question.
