A part of providing patient-centered care includes clinicians understanding the various payment models and reimbursement landscapes related to medical forensic care. When clinicians are not knowledgeable of how payment and reimbursement work, it leaves the potential for error or patient billing, which may cause additional trauma and stress for the patient instead of the intended path to healing. This webinar will provide an overview of funding sources and payment models for medical forensic exams. It will discuss strategies for handling reimbursement challenges and resolving issues while supporting the delivery of effective and compassionate care to patients by helping prevent them from being billed for their medical forensic exams. 


Presented by: Koren Grzelak, RN, a Forensic Nurse Specialist at International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN)
