Our Denial Management Process
Denial Tracking
Our first step is identifying and categorizing all denied claims. This includes monitoring electronic remittance advices (ERAs) and Explanation of Benefits (EOBs) to track denials and understand their cause.
Root Cause Analysis
Once denials are categorized, we perform a detailed root cause analysis to identify why denials occurred. This may involve reviewing coding, verifying patient eligibility, assessing the appropriacy of medical necessity documentation, and more.
Denial Resolution
Upon identifying the issues, our experienced team steps in to resolve them on your behalf. This could involve correcting coding errors, providing additional documentation, or appealing denials based on incorrect information.
Appeal Preparation and Submission
For denials that need to be appealed, we prepare comprehensive appeal letters presenting clear arguments supported by appropriate clinical documentation and relevant regulatory guidelines.
Continuous Improvement
After resolving denials, we analyze trends and patterns to identify areas for process improvement. This could involve training coders, improving documentation practices, or enhancing patient eligibility verification.
