Dusty Ellinger,
ROLF Consulting, will present a session on
Emergency Preparedness at this year's Ohio
Provider Resource (OPRA) Spring Conference on April 6, 2018.
Session Description: CMS published the
final rule "Emergency Preparedness Requirements for Medicare and Medicaid Participating Providers and Suppliers", which the
