Do you know how many revenue opportunities your cardiac department missed last year due to inaccurate or incomplete coding? The dollar figure is likely staggering. An hbRecon coordinated data audit is your solution for accurate revenue capture.

Fostering an ongoing partnership between clinical and coding departments is crucial to maximizing every possible revenue opportunity. Effective collaboration also ensures that clinical documentation accurately reflects cardiac services provided. But this partnership isn’t always easy to foster, especially when departments are siloed. hbRecon overcomes this challenge by capturing and aligning clinical, coding, and financial data and providing users with feedback in various reports, including DRG Summary Reports and ICD-10 Procedure and Diagnoses Detail Reports.

Miscoded DRGs can have significant impacts on the profitability of health systems. Common reasons for miscoded DRGs include: • Incorrect assignment of diagnosis or procedure codes • Incomplete clinical documentation • Failure to adhere to current coding guidelines • Complexity of medical conditions and procedures • Subjective interpretation of clinical information During a coordinated coding and clinical registry data audit, hbRecon maximizes revenue capture by assigning higher—or lower-weighted DRG codes to reduce episodes of under—and over-billing.

heartbase is excited to announce that we will be attending both the AQO & AQS conferences this year. Join us by filling out a brief survey here https://ow.ly/VZHW50SByOl, and let us know if you would be interested in attending a dinner or cocktail hour. We look forward to seeing you there!

Claims data audits have limits when it comes to uncovering coding errors in revenue capture and recovery. While claims data audits ensure that the assigned codes are correct, this type of audit cannot detect coding errors due to incomplete documentation or challenges interpreting unstructured data. That’s why hbRecon utilizes cardiovascular clinical registry data (ACC-NCDR, STS, AHA, & ELSO), not claims data, to uncover missed revenue opportunities. Aligning clinical registry, coding, and financial data sets in a reconciled platform leads to: • Overbilling detection • An improved re-bill process • Increased reimbursement • Increased clinical data accuracy Learn more about hbRecon:  https://lnkd.in/gv97FPKj #HealthcareCompliance #hbRecon #CoordinatedAudit
