National Government Services, Inc.
FY2008 Small Provider Training Schedule

In FY 2008 NGS will conduct training for small providers. The law defines small provider, as providers with fewer then 25 full time equivalents.
The session conducted by the NGS Provider Outreach and Education (POE) staff have divided the sessions into five categories based on the similarity of the provider types.

  • Hospitals, Skilled Nursing Facilities, Inpatient Rehab., Inpatient Pscy Critical Access Hospitals
  • End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)
  • Home Health
  • Hospice
  • Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC),Rural Health centers ( RHC)

Providers should complete the available Computer Based Training (CBT) courses on the NGS website. The completion of the CBT will familirize the provider with the billing procedures outlined by CMS, and will make the training more meaningful. During the sessions the POE staff will discuss the details in billing for each provider type and answer specific provider questions.

Providers that meet the definition of small providers, and are interested in attending a training session, can register for a session online. Review the list of training dates below.
