| Recovery audit contractors: Learn from your peers |
| Editor's note: This is the first in a two-part series in which HIM directors in three RAC states recount their experiences with audits thus far. This article will discuss staffing, forming a RAC team, and productivity. Next month's focus will be on appealing denials and tracking data.

HIM directors from California, New York, and Florida shared their implementation perspectives at a roundtable discussion during HCPro's March 11 audioconference, "Recovery Audit Contractors: Lessons Learned to Help Your Hospital Prepare Now." |
