Press Release - March 28, 2007 - Newswire Today Billing Precision To Train Chiropractors Computer-Aided Intelligent Coding
Billing Precision, the leading provider of chiropractic practice management solutions, will host an online interactive seminar on Computer-Aided Intelligent Coding on April 9, 2007. Inexact and inconsistent coding increases the risks of undercharging, overcharging, and post-payment audit. Coding is difficult because of the large volume and intricacy of coding rules, payer-specific rule modifications, regulatory dynamics, and a disconnect between charge generation and claim follow up phases within revenue processing cycle. Only experienced coders can handle such complexity but experience too often turns into handicap as, in the absence of a reliable self-correcting process, the coder or the follow up person may repeat the same mistake over and over. Thorough knowledge and correct application of coding rules at the charge generation stage of claim processing cycle have the highest potential to expedite the entire revenue cycle. Computer aided intelligent coding offers multiple advantages: • Dynamic - Adjusts for changes in regulations, practice operations, and payer specifics. • Precise - Matches codes to EMR and alerts in real time about potential coding errors, such as confusing modifiers 51 and 59 for repeat procedure or test. • Defensive - Allows for real-time profiling of coding patterns to alert about potential audit flag. • Reliable - Facilitates end-of-day juxtaposition of visits with charges, avoiding unpaid visits. • Inexpensive - Eliminates extra data entry step and associated costs, placing the doctor in control of coding and billing.
