DEMO AND CHARGE ENTRY

Medical Claims Audit – The claims are then put through a series of rigorous auditing sessions, which involves extensive testing at various levels. The completed claims then go through the second round of examination for validation of information, including correctness of procedures and diagnoses codes. Only those claims that are error-free go to the next step.

CLAIM TRANSMISSION AND WORKING ON CLEARING HOUSE REJECTIONS

Once the charges are created and their correctness is established, they are filed with the payer electronically. At the clearing houses, the accuracy of information contained in the claims is validated and a report is sent back within 24 hours in case of any inconsistencies. Once we get the report, the inaccuracies in the claims will be rectified and within next 24 hours’ error-free claims will be resubmitted to the insurance company.
