Get more bang for your buck with claim editing analytics

Written by Jon Edwards | Jan 17, 2018 11:00:00 PM

Remember the infomercial tagline, “Set it and forget it!”? That might be what you would look for in a rotisserie grill, but if it describes what you’re doing with claim editing, then you’re leaving a lot of savings on the table.

Claim editing is a powerful tool to help payers control costs. Plans can identify claim coding or payment policy violations by applying comprehensive editing rules before they pay healthcare claims. Only by continually applying post-implementation analytics to your claim data, however, can you optimize the value that your claim editing system or systems deliver.

Did you know that for some health plans, nearly 30 percent of claims with modifier 59 are billed incorrectly? This can lead to millions of dollars in overpayments and medical loss. Applying analytics can help you identify the most common code combinations contributing to waste and ensure that related services are clinically validated prior to payment.

There’s money in the data—and we’ll help you find it.
