The Value of Information
Reimbursement
How are payers treating us? How do we compare to our peers?
Utilization
Are we an outlier on a code that is an “audit-trigger”? Are we under-coding and missing potential revenue opportunity?
Productivity
How is our staff performing versus our peers?
Revenue cycle efficiencies
Correct incomplete or incorrect
prior to submission. Reduce claim denials, underpayments and re-work.
Claims accuracy
Relational editing for ICD and CPT. Payer-specific claims checking before submission.
Regulatory compliance
Evaluates claims against rules and
initiatives

Medical Necessity Reduction
Little Rock Oncology Hematology went live on the Hosted ClaimsManager product in November 2008. As part of the product offering, the Hosted ClaimsManager team meets with the
customer monthly to focus on their top denials and how to further reduce the denials by tweaking the edits in Hosted ClaimsManager. During the first meeting in February 2009, this organization chose Medical Necessity denial as an area where they’d like to drive improvement. By reviewing the charges before they’re submitted to the payer,
they were able to reduce their Medical Necessity denials.

“We really feel we get our money’s worth with catching coding/clinical errors up front reducing re-work on the back end. We also like the “rescrub” functionality for those services that need to be viewed as “a whole package”.”

“It’s very helpful in advising the provider of any incorrect information prior to claim submission which allows for timely payment of claims. Also very thorough with any updates/alerts we need to know about. No areas for improvement.”
- Patti Nachmann, South Florida Associates P.A.
