Utilization Review Training
Utilization Review Training (UR)
A vital component to the bottom line of any addiction treatment center or mental health facility is the Utilization Review Department. It is the lifeblood of the company as it gets authorization from insurance companies for reimbursements and a revenue stream for the maintenance of the financial security and the growth of the company, its employees’ wages, and the general well-being of the program in the recovery community.
If your UR team is not trained they will not get the proper amount of days for the client and you will not get paid properly. Wrong codes, incorrect codes, not understanding the diagnosis or human error can attribute to not receiving the correct amount of insurance per patient or denials pilling up. We will teach your team how to correct that.
Our Utilization Review Training course’s main objective is to fulfill an often requested service by the recovery industry, especially treatment centers and programs, and to offer some basic fundamentals for the delicate Utilization Review process which allows treatment programs, through their UR management specialists, to get the most reimbursements for the billing codes for CD/SA by the treatment facilities and, thus, allow for the fiscal sustaining and growth of a facility. This 3 1/2 hour course will enlighten the novice to understand the UR process, refresh and improve upon the education and maintenance of those seasoned in UR and shed light on some advanced features of the UR process with regard to peer-to-peer reviews and appeals!

Frequently Asked Questions About Sober Companions
Do I need a sober companion?
Not everyone will, but if you are just coming out of a residential program or our Sober on Demand concierge coaching, you can likely benefit greatly from having one. If you attend a high-stress event, like a wedding, job duty, or other event, you should have a sober buddy to go with you for support and guidance.
What is a sober companion?
Sober companions are certified, bonded, insured, and long-term sober individuals who can offer the right support for those looking to get and stay clean. They are available as a live in at your residence, or just to accompany you to events, work, gym, grocery, meetings, outings, and other high-risk situations. They can help with mental health issues like ADD, depression, eating disorders and various types of addiction: drug addiction, alcohol addiction, food addiction and sex addiction.
How are sober companions and therapists different?
Your therapist serves as your guide in your journey, helping you uncover truths about your addiction and develop the skills you need to stay clean. A sober companion is someone who supports the work you do with your therapist by accompanying you through life outside of therapy.
Do you need to be certified to be a sober companion?
You should be certified as a sober companion, bonded, and insured. You should also have at least five years of sobriety under your belt before you take on clients. You can get your certification through The Addictions Academy.
