HIMSS Revenue Cycle Summit: Reducing Denials Through Automation

Today’s health systems are significantly challenged by denials.  This has a direct impact on revenue, payment delays, and administrative dollars wasted appealing denied claims. There are solutions to fix this problem. Automating your financial workflow through centralization and documentation is one place to start.

Moffit Cancer Center saw exceptional results from the denials management program they implemented while also improving their operational efficiency. Patient Access Director, Lynne Hildreth, is speaking at the upcoming Revenue Cycle Solutions Summit in Las Vegas, where she will discuss Moffit Cancer Center’s experience.

During her session, March 5th from 11:50am to 12:10pm at the Wynn Las Vegas, Lynne will cover the following:

  • Analyze interventions including centralization, documentation and automation of financial clearance workflow.
  • Describe KPI used to measure timeliness and completion of financial clearance activities.
  • Evaluate documentation and integration of patient authorization data for use in winning appeals and reducing denials.

Sound like something your health system could benefit from? Register for the Revenue Cycle Solutions Summit, and check out Lynne’s session.
