Why ACE?
The government's crusade to uncover and prosecute health care fraud is motivation to bring a successful compliance plan into daily physician activities. We will create a realistic plan that will withstand the scrutiny of Medicare auditors.
Our compliance process incorporates risk identification, correction and prevention through education and auditing. Our goal is to prevent and detect violations, then report and recommend solutions to potential problems. Click here to read more about the ACE Approach.
Feedback from an ACE client:
“With their in-depth knowledge about pain and anesthesia services, they were able to answer any questions and intelligently assess our group practice. I particularly liked the direct information provided (not just fluff). In my opinion, both the auditing and consulting services offered by ACE were a good investment for our group and will be a good resource for future references.”
