The consultant recommends that you be more liberal in coding the severity of residents needs to justify greater reimbursement. The consultant tells you, everybody does it and, its an undetectable way to boost revenue.
You believe this approach is somewhere between inappropriate and illegal. You know the consultant is being paid on a commission and is an old college buddy of the facility administrator. You also recognize that your facility could soon go out of business and leave you without a job.
