Cardiovascular coding errors could cost your organization millions in lost revenue. Schedule a demo of hbRecon to discover how a coordinated audit between the clinical registry and coding data can uncover missed billing opportunities, identify cases to be rebilled, and implement new processes to enhance cardiovascular coding accuracy and increase facility reimbursements.
Integrate clinical registry, coding, and financial datasets in a unified and reconciled platform.
Perform synchronized data analysis and reconciliation with push-button reports during data entry.
Automatically identify potentially miscoded DRGs and assign higher or lower-weighted DRG codes where appropriate.
Leverage secondary audit opportunities of clinical registry data to ensure alignment with updated coding rules.
The hbRecon data model continually evolves with new registry datasets and coding scenarios to find new reimbursement opportunities.
Overcome silos between clinical and coding departments to improve communication and documentation processes.
Phase 1.
INTEGRATION OF CLINICAL REGISTRY, FINANCIAL & CODING DATA SOURCES
The clinical registry, financial & coding data sources must be integrated & aligned in the heartbase hbCOR platform via interfaces and/or extracts from the clinical data registry platform & the financial billing and coding system.
Phase 2.
HBRECON REPORT INVESTIGATION, REVIEW, & SUBMISSION
Once the data is aligned and integrated, the hbRecon toolkit can be immediately run against all complete & coded registry data. Heartbase will provide feedback and insight on a weekly basis during the investigation phase. Data is presented in a wide array of reports from DRG Summary Reports to ICD-10 Procedure & Diagnoses Detail Reports. Users have the flexibility of reviewing all relevant clinical registry and financial & coding data in one location.
Phase 3.
RECONCILIATION & PROCESS REVIEW
Cases are reviewed by the clinical team, and then submitted for secondary review by the hospital coding and compliance teams. This process will vary site to site, network to network. Ultimately there are four primary objectives: 1) Review Documentation & Coding, 2) Recode & Re-bill as Indicated, 3) Identify Outliers with Complex Coding, & 4) Reabstract Clinical Data, as necessary.
Discover a simple solution to uncover missed billing opportunities and maximize revenue capture.
