Our comprehensive revenue cycle management solutions set includes:

PRE-SERVICE SOLUTIONS

Centralized Pre-registration: Meduit’s pre-registration team provides highly skilled, dedicated call center staff using proprietary telephony and digital technology to contact patients, prior to services being rendered, to support the registration process. This service provides a comprehensive customer service process, including verification of demographic and insurance information and a patient-friendly approach to educating patients and helping them resolve their estimated patient liability and providing methods of account resolution.

This centralized pre-registration process also ensures that insurance is valid for the patient on the date of service, ensures authorization/pre-certification requirements are met or understood if not met, and obtains patient co-pay and deductible amounts. Each patient can then be classified as cleared and ready for service, or given a high/low risk designation for additional follow-up with insurance and/or the patient prior to the scheduled services being rendered.

Meduit Patient Financing: An alternative solution to provide a convenient, flexible and low-cost option for patients to pay medical expenses, while the healthcare provider immediately receives full payment without the need to discount services. All patients qualify and a credit check is not required. These low-interest loans are designed to fit within monthly cash flow budgets and there are no surprise fees or payment penalties.

BUSINESS OFFICE SERVICES

Denials Resolution (Technical and Clinical/Coding): Denied accounts have reached a pain point across the industry, with denials growing 20% over the last five years. Meduit will utilize EDI billing data (ANSI 276/277 and 835) and remit data to determine and classify the nature of the denial. Meduit employs highly experienced denial staff specializing in effectively appealing and overturning denials to maximize recovery and reduce loss. Credentialed clinical staff oversee the clinical appeal processes, reviewing medical records and appealing based on documentation supporting the needs for the service. As an add-on, certified coding staff review code-based denials and ensure correct and appropriate coding is applied to both the claim and the EHR for faster payment recovery.

Meduit Patient Concierge App: Understanding a hospital bill can be challenging for patients. They often cannot discern what they owe and how to pay it. When a patient launches the app, an avatar named Eve walks them through their bill and explains every part of it, prompting the patient to make a payment or access their account online.
