Medicare Compliance Review of University of Kansas Hospital for Calendar Years 2009 and 2010
The University of Kansas Hospital (the Hospital) (operating in Kansas) complied with Medicare billing requirements for 38 of the 79 inpatient and outpatient claims we reviewed. However, the Hospital did not fully comply with Medicare billing requirements for the remaining 41 claims, resulting in net overpayments totaling $254,000 for calendar years 2009 and 2010. Overpayments occurred primarily because the Hospital did not have adequate controls to prevent incorrect billing of Medicare claims.
