Uncovering the Hidden Gems: The Power of Claims Analytics in Revolutionizing Healthcare
In the world of healthcare, claims denials are often seen as a necessary evil, draining revenue and causing significant strain on a practice’s financial stability. But what if there was a solution that could minimize these denials and maximize profits? Enter claims analytics.
Join us on a journey to discover the untapped potential of claims analytics and how it can transform the short- and long-term profitability of your practice.
So, what exactly is claims analytics? At its core, it uses data to analyze healthcare claims and their outcomes, whether they are accepted, rejected, or denied. With the advancement of technology, claims analytics procedures have become more sophisticated, utilizing automated systems and software to streamline the process.
But don’t confuse claims analytics with claims analysis – they may sound similar, but they have distinct differences. While claims analysis is a broad process of collecting and analyzing information about accepted, denied, and rejected claims, analytics is the mathematical and technical component that collects and processes data to uncover patterns and trends.
And with the help of technology, analytics can provide critical insights such as denial rates by payer, reimbursement speed, and coding error frequency. This information is crucial in identifying areas of improvement and optimizing revenue.
But how can a savvy practice utilize claims analytics to its full potential? Let’s explore one use case – payer analysis. By using analytics to organize denials by payer, practices can identify if a specific payer is responsible for a significant number of denials. This data can then be used to address any issues with that payer’s claim requirements and potentially reduce the denial rate.
Payer analysis also gives practices an advantage when negotiating payer contracts. By using denial data as leverage, practices can amend existing contracts or negotiate new ones more effectively, ultimately protecting their revenue.
So, how can practices unlock the full potential of claims data analytics? The answer lies in adopting a Medicare claims automation analytics solution. These solutions automate the data collection and organization process, eliminating room for human error and allowing practices to focus on resolution.
But to truly harness the power of analytics, it’s crucial to have a dedicated department or individual responsible for managing the data. While it is possible to conduct claims analytics manually, it becomes more challenging and time-consuming for larger practices with complex billing systems. Designating a person or team to handle analytics with the help of a software solution ensures more significant impact and efficiency.
But the benefits of Medicare pricer software don’t end there. With access to data insights, practices can identify revenue opportunities, improve clean claims rates, decrease days in accounts receivable, and save costs on appealing claims.
