Understanding Medicare Treasury Claims – Avoiding the Pitfalls and Steps for Success
Understanding Medicare Treasury Claims – Avoiding the Pitfalls and Steps for Success
Monday, March 13, 2023

It is no secret that the U.S. Department of Treasury collection actions regarding Medicare conditional payment claims are on the rise. In fact, a recent CMS report found that Treasury collections jumped from $55 million in 2020 to $82 million in 2021, a 47% increase. In the big picture, notice of a Treasury claim – or worse yet a Treasury offset – very often signals that something went wrong as part of the claims handling process.
With Treasury claims increasing – there are real dollars at risk and real liability. It is critical that insurers understand the challenges and build compliance strategies to reduce risk. This session breaks down what you need to know about Treasury claims and outlines steps to help you avoid Treasury actions in the first place.
Topics to be addressed include:
- Seeing the big picture – Treasury and CMS recovery claims
- Understanding how Treasury claims arise
- Navigating Treasury collection actions – and Treasury offsets
- Challenging and disputing Treasury actions
- Avoiding Treasury claims – steps you can take to reduce Treasury claims
Who Should Attend
Risk managers; Self-insureds; TPAs; Defense attorneys; General counsel; In-house counsel; Claims managers and executive
