Clinical documentation is at the core of every patient encounter, and supports the reporting needed to measure clinical quality and secure accurate and appropriate reimbursement.  A robust Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) program may be essential to your preparedness for the ICD-10 transition. Our Clinical Documentation Improvement for Hospitals and Health Systems helps to ensure that clinical documentation is accurate, timely, and clearly reflects the scope of services provided.

Our professionals provide ongoing education and improvement initiatives to help your CDI programs support complete and accurate reporting to your stakeholders.

After the ICD-10 transition, continuous education and monitoring will remain critical as the industry and payers continue to adjust and develop new methods to incentivize higher quality patient care.

Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) is growing in every leading U.S. hospital system.

These programs directly impact quality measures, admission standards, acuity and severity levels, clinical indicators, resource utilization, pay-for-performance, value-based purchasing, population management and advanced model initiatives that require exceptional specificity of clinical documentation and accuracy of reporting.

Ways to Ensure Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) Success

• Standardizing care across teams.
• Reducing claim denials and increasing reimbursements.
• Managing procedure quality and bench-marking.
• Improving patient throughput and satisfaction.
• Developing more thorough, accurate procedure notes.

Here are three reasons why implementing a CDI program can prove beneficial to your healthcare organization:

• Quality reporting leading to accurate documentation.
• Achieving positive brand awareness.
• Minimizing room for medical error through improved communication.

The importance of clinical documentation

It captures patient care from admission to discharge, including diagnoses, treatment and resources used during their care. When the documentation is complete, detailed, and accurate, it prevents ambiguity, and improves communication between healthcare providers.

Key Benefits

• Enhance clinical documentation specificity to support accurate code assignment
• Identify potential compliance issues and areas for improvement
• Provide tailored CDI training to your physicians
• Educate your physicians on heightened documentation expectations due to regulatory mandates

What is advanced CDI?

An advanced approach to clinical documentation improvement addresses all payers and all care settings, a program driven by physicians. While still optimizing providers’ work in the current fee-for-service reimbursement model, advanced CDI must help prepare health systems for the future of value-based care and focus on quality scorecards.

MRA

The purpose of risk adjustment chart review is to adequately capture all the missed and hidden HCC diagnosis from the medical records.

How Does it works?

The risk adjustment chart review is a type of comprehensive review and reading all the medical records and understand the complete medical history and come up with the new HCC diagnosis from the possible opportunities which eventually improves the risk score.This risk adjusted base payment amount is then added to the rebate for plans bidding below the benchmark to determine total reimbursement.

What is a good Medicare risk score?

Risk scores generally range between 0.9 and 1.7, and beneficiaries with risk scores less than 1.0 are considered relatively healthy.

What is HCC Coding?

Understanding Today’s Risk Adjustment Model:
CMS uses HCCs to reimburse Medicare Advantage plans based on the health of their members. It pays accurately for the predicted cost expenditures of patients by adjusting those payments based on demographic information and patient health status. The risk assessment data used is based on the diagnosis information pulled from claims and medical records which are collected by physician offices, hospital inpatient visits, and in outpatient settings.

How HCCs work?

Diseases and conditions are organized into body systems or similar disease processes. The top HCC categories include:

• Major depressive and bipolar disorders
• Asthma and pulmonary disease
• Diabetes
• Specified heart arrhythmias
• Congestive Heart Failure
• Breast and prostate cancer
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Colorectal, breast, kidney
  For HCC to be successful, the provider must report all diagnoses that impact the patient’s evaluation, care, and treatment including co-existing conditions, chronic conditions, and treatments rendered.

What Rebekah medical consultants do?

• We as a team do a chart review based on your requirements.
• We read all the medical records and pick up the missed HCC diagnosis and possible opportunities.
• Then we deliver the reports.

Our chart review frequency models

1. Yearly review (One time review)
2. Half-yearly review (Twice a year)
3. Quarterly review
4. Daily basis (Based on patient schedule)

Prospective Review

Prospective clinical reviews occur prior to the point of care. Highly effective clinical review teams utilize clinicians and clinical coders to assess diagnostics, health history, medication lists, treatment plans, imaging reports, and additional clinical documentation to capture diagnoses that aren’t inherently visible to the treating physician. Our approach provides intelligent insights into the patient-provider interaction by delivering qualified conditions with supporting logic to the physicians ahead of the date of service and we push prospective diagnosis into EMR.

Retrospective Review

Dig deep into your healthcare beneficiary risk stratification, with risk adjustment insights. Rebekah Medical Consultants’ retrospective chart reviews analyse date of service to abstract HCC codes to the highest specificity possible. Our team of HCC professional identifies care-gaps and missed HCC opportunities during the retrospective review process to optimize your operational efficiencies.

Concurrent Risk Review

Concurrent reviews occur in the EHR system and capture risk adjusting ICD [HCC] codes in real-time. Not all EHR systems are designed to support the HCC model, however. High-performing medical groups and numerous payer organizations utilize Rebekah Medical Consultants’ claims review and HCC coders to optimize claims before they are submitted.

MRA Validation

We audit the current HCC from the problem list and make sure all the HCC have the proper clinical evidence.  We also suggest the physician to address the condition (HCC) when there is lack of clinical evidence in the Medical records.
