predictive analytics in healthcare

The very first and one of the most important steps in RCM.

Many claims are denied or delayed by insurance companies due to inaccurate or insufficient information provided by patients at the time of their appointment or because the insurance information is out of date. This delays reimbursements and has a direct impact on cash flow.

Examining the Records

Upon receiving records from healthcare organizations / providers, we thoroughly analyze them and make sure they match the check list of the required documents. This process facilitates the organization of the documents as needed by the insurance company.

Validating the Patient’s Insurance Coverage

Prior to the patient encounter, we verify the patient’s insurance eligibility, benefits, and insurance coverage details with their primary and secondary payors directly or by referring to online insurance portals.

Following that, we capture and update details in the patient notes, including copay, deductible, coinsurance, in-network, out-of-network benefits, and PCP name matching.

If necessitated, we promptly contact the patient for a follow-up encounter to seek any missing or incorrect information and obtain the necessary authorization as a part of our service procedure check.
