Norwood’s Post

Clinical validation: A comparison of inpatient and ambulatory arenas Wednesday July 31, 12:00-12:45 p.m. EST (30 minutes presentation, 15 minutes Q&A)    Register here: https://lnkd.in/ee_EuzsS     Clinical validation is the current buzzword in the inpatient mid-revenue cycle, and for good reason: Payers are increasingly denying acute care claims not because of inaccurate coding, but for failing to meet (often arbitrary and opaque) clinical criteria. But have you assessed your vulnerability to clinical validation audits in the outpatient setting? Join us on Wednesday, July 31 for a special 45-minute webinar on this unique topic. Speaker Joanne Wilson, RN, ADN, CCDS will compare the inpatient and outpatient settings and identify the key differences and nuances of shoring up your claims in the ambulatory arena to prevent denials.

Norwood performs CMS compliance-level audits for its partner organizations. These audits involve: Evaluation of provider documentation Review of billed codes Determining whether codes are supported in the documentation Evaluating code accuracy Determining whether a higher (or lower) degree of specificity is warranted Following these steps, we compile the results into a detailed summary of the findings. Once complete, the next step is to educate and give feedback to the CDI team, HIM/coding, auditors, and providers to improve their processes for documentation capture and accurate code assignment. Our process has revealed patterns of both over-coding and under-coding. Read on for a deeper dive into the root causes of each: https://lnkd.in/eQ67tmZX
