AUDITING

Correct coding is an essential part of optimal

reimbursement for services rendered and is

also a key component in avoiding external

audits by Medicare/Medicaid and other third

party payers. The use of actual clinical

documentation is the best way to compare

your coding to industry standards and

regulations. CCHIS can help assist your

organization in justifying medical necessity,

ensuring correct coding, and complying with

regulatory issues. Focus includes:

Compliance and Regulatory Guidelines

Coding Methodologies

Medical Record Abstracting

Clinical Documentation Improvement

Communication of Results and Findings®

MEDICARE/MEDICAID RAC

MANAGEMENT

CCHIS will allow you to free up

critical staff members and use

them in other much needed areas.

Leave the worrying to us.

CCHIS will take care of the entire

audit process by:

Responding to the initial request for records;

Determining if and when to appeal denied claims and;

Ensuring timely replies throughout the appeals process.®
