THOROUGH CODING AUDITS
Speed Up Billing Cycle With Ongoing Coding Audits
Our expert coding professionals and auditors review and correct codes coming from manual or automated coding systems from real-time patient record review to post claim adjudication review to increase timely reimbursements and improve coding quality.
Prospective review
Prepare for upcoming patient encounters with review of clinical records to note down what information should be recorded to help the coding team record the right codes either during or after the visit.
Concurrent audits
Review and correct documentation and codes in real time or immediately after patient encounter and before claim submission to ensure codes match care provider delivered.
Retrospective audits
Review claims that have already been submitted for coding and documentation errors, overpayment instances, as well as under-coding opportunities.
Focused audits
Audit for issues that impact your organization on an ongoing basis.
By performing audits from multiple angles, your organization can expect improved coding accuracy, higher reimbursement, reduced denials and lower risk of non-compliance.
CODING DENIALS ANALYTICS
Identify Coding Denials Root Cause
Leveraging our analytics technology, our expert team is able to identify coding issues, denial trends and investigate each coding denial for root cause.
With continuous training and analysis, we are uniquely qualified to improve coding and document review workflows to prevent future coding inaccuracies.
ADJUDICATE DENIED CLAIMS
Overcome Coding Denials
Our software identifies denials that are coding related and routes them directly to our coding team for adjudication. Common coding denial groups are Coding-CPT, Coding-DX/ Medical Necessity, Coding-General and Coding-Modifier.
Certified coders work claim denials
Our coders working denials are certified either with CPC or CCS-P.
Determine hard or soft denial
Root cause is identified to understand why the charge was denied and categorized as a hard or soft coding denial. Hard denials are irreversible and are often lost or treated as written-off revenue. Soft denials are temporary, with the potential to be reversed when the claim is corrected or additional information is provided.
Adjudication process is performed
Denial, note and coding review process is performed. Available medical records are reviewed and necessary changes are made to resubmit. We then route where the charge needs to go -rebill, appeal or adjustment.
CODING DENIAL MANAGEMENT
Preventing Coding Denials From Recurring
We not only adjudicate on coding-related denied claims but also we also help avoid recurrence of the same denials in the future, especially for complex claims.
Discover coding denial root cause with analytics
Our coders utilize our analytics technology to identify coding denial trends and payer behavior to determine the root cause of the denials.
Actionable insights are shared
We share our findings with you, and include the education your coding team and providers need to improve documentation and increase your clean claim rate.
Help execute process improvements
We work closely with your team to adjust your current coding and clinical documentation workflows to avoid future coding denials, manual follow-up and appeals.
