Sophisticated analytics and deep clinical understanding
Clinical Data Analysis
Step 1—Benchmark Analysis
We begin with a benchmark and your paid claims. We run the provided claim file through our analytics. We determine the variance in pertinent diagnoses and HCC values between your declared HCCs, by member, and what we have identified.
Step 2—Opportunity Report
We prepare an opportunity report to highlight our findings, by HCC, with potential revenue. We also quantify the tactical aspects of a physical audit and auditing staff required.
Targeted Auditing
Step 3—Audit Launch
Based on your Opportunity Report, we detail the audit requirements, assign a Cognisight Account Manager, and begin the engagement.
Step 4—Results and Performance Monitoring
You receive access to a secure web site where audit progress is available on demand, so you can monitor the results and performance at any time with a click of a button.
Submitting and Summarizing
Step 5—RAPS Format Conversion
We continuously prepare RAPS-ready files, based on your auditor results, and transmit them to you according to the schedule you prefer. Each transmission is accompanied by a summary report of content and a reconciliation summary.
Step 6—Reconciliation Forecast
At the end of the audit, we provide you with a reconciliation forecast that will detail the starting point, what was submitted and accepted—sorted by member—and the expected reimbursement return.
Step 7—Audit Review and Recovery
We quantify the audit results and determine outstanding documentation for CMS reimbursement, and then can begin phase two recovery efforts.
Improving Care, Increasing Revenue
Step 8—Quality Care Support
We work with you to generate information to support your disease management, quality and case management efforts. The data collected during the audit provides a pinpoint view into your membership. Specific detail on member conditions and physician behaviors helps focus your interventions.
Step 9—Reimbursement
We don’t get paid until you get paid. There’s no risk. It’s that simple.
