"My military service gave me the ability to fight for our freedom, Change Healthcare allows me to fight to inspire a better healthcare system."
“It’s been huge to find invalid CPT codes that, with our old system, would have gone out the door and resulted in a missed reimbursement.”
“We wanted to use one strategic RCM partner to handle everything efficiently, so we could focus team member time on their important, high-touch functions.”
"We’re breaking down all of the barriers to payment. When a patient receives a bill, any obstacle that leads them to not pay the bill must be overcome."
"I wanted to help lower the abandonment rate. I also wanted to make sure our customer service reps were on the phone with people who really needed help."
"All of our income above expenses is used to improve the health of the community, and we need to appropriately identify charity since we are not-for-profit."
"RelayAssurance Practice has enabled us to catch errors and issues on the front end of the claims process, which has boosted productivity by greatly reducing staff time spent on backend troubleshooting and re-dos."
"Enabling them to catch errors upfront can mean the difference between a quick fix and an exhaustive effort that zaps productivity."
"Based on other software I’ve used, this is more user-friendly and flexible, who works in the professional billing office of Metro Health. It can place specific rules around a claim, instead of just getting a claim from point A to point B.”
"It’s flexible enough to be able to make some of the modifications yourself. It has good reporting capabilities for what we need.”
"But the integration is very straightforward and low maintenance. Any code edits or updates are done behind the scenes by RelayHealth to help keep the system running at peak efficiency."
"What sold me was the work list capability - by using work lists, we can perform some transactions 10 to 20 times faster than we could previously.”
"Those meetings are not always pleasant, but they do help find holes in claims processes. We now can pull great data to go back to payers and explain what’s going on. When a payer raises an issue, we can quickly check our records. “One payer asked us to verify how long it was taking us to submit claims. Using Acuity, we had that information right at hand."
"If someone calls in looking for a doctor and gets a referral, for example, and nine months later they’re back in to deliver a baby, we’re able to match our call records with the hospital’s financial records and reconcile the revenue. Without RelayCare Revenue Tracker, it would be a totally manual process, and it would be nearly impossible."
"If a patient called in for an estimate, anything beyond the top 10 services, like an MRI or CT, went to the charge audit unit. We couldn’t estimate surgical procedures, like knee replacements, without extensive research because we didn’t have the technology. We had one nurse per day dedicated to that function, and that is an expensive resource to have devoted to working up estimates."
