Is it the latest buzz? YES, it is!
Many may think that "revenue integrity" is new! Do you?
It is HOT in healthcare revenue cycle, audit and compliance.
"I WANT IT! . . . . But what is it?“
Results of a national healthcare industry survey revealed that 60 percent of hospital executives believe revenue integrity is essential to their organization’s financial health.

Defining Revenue Integrity
• Revenue Integrity can be a stand-alone department, initiative, program or organizational structure.
• The basis of Revenue Integrity is to prevent recurrence of issues that can cause revenue leakage and/or compliance risk.
• Activities under Revenue Integrity are expected to focus more on process improvement.
• A successful revenue integrity program will provide for a holistic view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology.

REVENUE INTEGRITY
The revenue integrity approach ensures that providers can clearly identify, track, and realize the profit margins for the care they deliver. Through a series of integrated systems and processes, providers can detect and eliminate many of the pitfalls in traditional revenue cycle processes that are quickly becoming liabilities.

REVENUE INTEGRITY
As a holistic concept, integrity is characterized by consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles, expectations, and outcomes. Applied to the healthcare industry, revenue integrity is the achievement of operational efficiency, compliance, and legitimate reimbursement. Revenue integrity can be achieved only with the proper processes, tools, and related expertise aimed at effectively pricing, charging, and coding for services and supplies related to patient care.
![Page 9: Scope of HIM In Revenue Integrity...view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology. REVENUE INTEGRITY The revenue integrity approach ensures that providers](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050121/5f51721b8d8ace24ca74002a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Process efficiency – people and technology• Compliance – following rules of engagement• Correct payment – proper pricing, charging, coding, and
documentation

REVENUE INTEGRITY.
What revenue integrity IS NOTis having someone work the same issues every day or analyzing and benchmarking issues without a direction to improve. This is not a time to be reactive, but proactive.
![Page 11: Scope of HIM In Revenue Integrity...view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology.

Revenue Integrity
These intricacies commonly show up when dealing with complex payer contract reimbursement requirements, or when working with patient populations that lack awareness of their health coverage and payment responsibilities. PREVENTING: End result is an undetected underpayment, a claim with missing charges, or an unnecessary write-off of a patient-owed balance.
![Page 12: Scope of HIM In Revenue Integrity...view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology.

REVENUE INTEGRITY.Suzanne Lestina, revenue cycle technical director for the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA), takes it a step further.
“Revenue integrity means right revenue, right delivery, and right protocols to ensure right [accurate] reimbursement and compliance. Revenue integrity doesn’t begin with a charge.”
![Page 13: Scope of HIM In Revenue Integrity...view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology. REVENUE INTEGRITY The revenue integrity approach ensures that providers](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050121/5f51721b8d8ace24ca74002a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
REVENUE INTEGRITY.
To understand and be a Champion for Revenue Integrity, You must understand Revenue Leakage.
Healthcare providers have long relied on conventional revenue cycle management practices to drive and ensure financial performance, yet most are NOT collecting all the revenue to which they are entitled. This disparity – the gap between the amount of revenue providers are entitled to and the amount of reimbursement eventually received – is called revenue leakage, and it’s a significant problem.
![Page 14: Scope of HIM In Revenue Integrity...view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology. REVENUE INTEGRITY The revenue integrity approach ensures that providers](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050121/5f51721b8d8ace24ca74002a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
REVENUE INTEGRITY.With up to 40,000 or more line items in a hospital’s chargemaster, the potential for costly errors is high, and likely to result in lost revenue, rework, fines, and penalties. A hospital with annual revenue of $300 million can easily lose $3 million to chargemaster and charge capture errors per year. Identifying the source and extent of leakage is essential to achieving revenue integrity.

VALUE of HIM
We must be able to articulate the Value of HIM, Clinical Documentation and CodingIn patient care organizations, proper and accurate clinical documentation has always been important, but in today’s shifting healthcare landscape, it has become even more of a strategic imperative than perhaps ever before. Documentation is critical for: patient care, not only because it validates the care that was provided it shares key data with subsequent caregivers and optimizes claims processing and reimbursement
![Page 18: Scope of HIM In Revenue Integrity...view of the revenue cycle, with support from leadership and technology. REVENUE INTEGRITY The revenue integrity approach ensures that providers](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050121/5f51721b8d8ace24ca74002a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
HIM Best Practices address “Documentation Integrity”
• Information Governance• Patient identity Management• Authorship validation• Amendments and • Record corrections • Auditing the record for documentation validity when submitting reimbursement claims. EHRs have customizable documentation applications that allow the use of templates and smart phrases to assist with documentation. Unless these tools are used appropriately, however, the integrity of the data may be questioned and the information deemed inaccurate—or possibly even perceived as fraudulent activity. Established policies and procedures such as audit functions must be in place to ensure compliant billing and REVENUE INTEGRITY!

HIM, Coding & CDI: VALUE Propositions
Both documentation and coding accuracy ensure correct provider profiles and a true reflection of patient severity.
This includes documentation and coding of chronic conditions included in Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCCs). Specific secondary diagnosis codes equate to HCCs and impact the Risk Adjustment Factor for Medicare Advantage beneficiaries as well as some commercial payer beneficiaries.

The Impact of ICD10 Coding Compliance• Documentation practices have been considered by many to be the top
driver for ICD-10 success, given that clinical documentation must meet the level of coding specificity and granularity required to achieve:
• REVENUE INTEGRITY achieve optimal reimbursement; • COMPLIANCE: meet all regulatory and reporting requirements; and • DENIALS AVOIDANCE accurately reflect the level of care provided.
• A good CDI program and good clinical documentation is a fundamental critical step to achieving a successful ICD-10 Coding Compliance.

Revenue Integrity: We must have Documentation IntegrityThere are CDI-specific operational analytics, in addition to traditional metrics like case mix index with appropriate, comparative benchmarks. Clinical documentation integrity impacts all other performance measures, including quality and safety.You need to be collecting, validating, disseminating and trending CDI metrics, as you do with other management information.

Clinical Documentation Integrity• Documentation integrity involves the accuracy of the complete
health record.• Coded data is then translated into quality reporting, physician
report cards, reimbursement, public health data, and disease tracking and trending.
• The convergence of clinical documentation and coding processes is vital to a healthy revenue cycle, and more important, to a healthy patient.

Revenue Integrity: Include HCCs in Your Program
Reimbursement is linked to how sick the member is and adjusts risk based on specific diagnoses. Documentation of these chronic conditions should be included at each patient encounter and should include the specific evaluation or treatment for each condition coded.
Both Coding and CDI professionals will play a critical role in quality reporting for all providers across the continuum of care.

Coding & CDI Across the Continuum
We cannot be ‘acute care focused’ without thinking about Coding and CDI across the continuum of care.• Now is the time to review the initiatives associated with Health
Care Reform Initiatives and consider the necessity of education and training for both providers and staff.
• It will be important to review current documentation and coding practices and identify the potential benefits of CDI programs in the physician practice setting.

Front End DesignDenials and Repayment• How do you migrate from a less efficient “find and fix” approach that you
know and trust to a more effective approach? • A sensible solution requires a fundamental shift from quantifying return on
investment (ROI) based on errors found downstream, to a process that ensures industry best practices are followed from early in the revenue cycle all the way through to the measurement of real-time transaction accuracy.
THINK WITH THE END IN MIND!

Let’s think about bringing this altogether!
Role of HIM in Revenue Integrity
Must have Enterprise-wide Information Governance which is a collaborative effort that empowers and supports improved patient care, financial integrity, clinical documentation integrity and coding compliance.

Moving to a Comprehensive Revenue Integrity Program• Best practice revenue integrity processes essentially take traditional RCM
to the next level by using predictive analytics to drive smart workflows that integrate functions, such as coverage identification, charge capture, billing, denial management, and payment, in order to optimize revenues.
• Data extracted from various stages of the revenue cycle powers automation that proactively identifies potential issues before they become problematic.
• The best response is to incorporate lessons learned from Analytics into workflows to better educate and communicate with patients, securing more patient-responsible balances as a result.
