Press Release Issued December 18, 2024
AQ Consulting LLC and AQ-IQ LLC are excited to announce the return of the AQ-IQ IRF PRO LAB™ Virtual course, launching January 16, 2025. This comprehensive course is designed to help Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities (IRFs) uncover hidden opportunities to improve financial performance, secure accurate reimbursement, and streamline operations.
The AQ-IQ IRF PRO LAB™ Virtual course offers a proven approach for addressing common challenges that IRFs face in optimizing the revenue cycle, improving compliance, and enhancing operational efficiency. The course provides participants with essential strategies to identify and correct barriers that hinder reimbursement, ensuring their facilities remain compliant with regulations while solidifying revenue.
Unlike traditional training programs, the AQ-IQ IRF PRO LAB™ course is structured to allow professionals to absorb and apply the material at a manageable pace. Each 2-hour session will be held once a week over a 10-week period. This slower format ensures participants have ample time to engage with the course content, apply what they learn to their day-to-day responsibilities, and ask questions to course instructors for further clarification.
Paula Digby, CCS, CDIP, CPC, CPCI, AHIMA Approved ICD-10-CM/PCS and CDI Trainer at AQ Consulting LLC, explains, “The feedback we received from previous participants indicated that a more gradual pace would allow for deeper learning and better implementation of key concepts. We are confident that the new format will provide even greater value and help participants drive lasting improvements in their facilities’ financial performance.”
The AQ-IQ IRF PRO LAB™ course is ideal for IRF Program Directors, IRF PPS Coordinators, CMG Coordinators, IRF-PAI Coordinators, IRF Coders, Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) staff, Clinical Liaisons, and anyone involved in the revenue cycle within Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities. Participants will leave with a clear roadmap for addressing overlooked revenue opportunities, improving compliance, and streamlining operational processes—all critical for securing accurate reimbursement and ensuring long-term financial stability.
Enrollment for the January 16, 2025 course is now open. To learn more or to register, visit https://aq-iq.com/aq-iq-irf-pro-lab-virtual-course/.
