Medical Claims Processing at Flatworld Solutions

Converting accounts receivable into cash demands a well-organized, systematic and focused approach that is designed to facilitate problem resolution instead of just basic information gathering. Effective documentation facilitates vital reference material that can be very handy when analyzing and resolving problems that might emerge in the future.

Flatworld Solutions' Medical Claims Process

Identifying Benchmarks across Varied Payers

To understand the cash disbursement process followed by varied payers, it is vital to establish the benchmarks around their processing patterns. Information pertaining to this is typically gathered through historical data and other references, such as previously-issued Denial mails, EOBs (Explanation of Benefits) that were paid out, Manuals and Newsletters.

The benchmark information should clearly illustrate the following:

  • Processing time for claims raised by the carrier.
  • Data requirements such as tax ID number, provider number, pay-to address, etc.
  • Checklists required from the carrier for all blocks in the HCFA-1500 claim form.
  • Documentation requested-referrals, attachments and any other documents.
  • Varied plans which the player has deployed, and card copies of each.

Note that processing and payment delays are not built into the benchmark, since these generally arise due to improper submission of claims documents.

We are committed to offer a well-planned system to deliver on the medical claims process, which includes the following steps:

Step 1 - Identifying Claims Outside the Benchmark

Further to the benchmarks being established, we identify the medical claims that are outliers to the benchmark. This process is done on a weekly basis to determine the total volume and value of such claims. This helps in defining a broad pattern on the key issues impacting most of the claims.

Step 2 - Prioritizing Medical Claims for Action

Upon identifying the medical claims that are outliers to the benchmark, we next identify the claims that can be processed forward. Reports are used to identify the payer type and filing limit.

Step 3 - Problem Identification

This forms a crucial step where problems and resolution approaches for the various cases are analyzed and documented. Since the medical insurance process is governed by complex regulations, insurance companies have devised complex rules for the claims payout process. Navigating through any errors-by way of erroneous data entry, incorrect claims information or external processing delay, will therefore need to be managed carefully. Each of the problems will need to be researched well and solutions will have to be identified, depending on the nature of error. The resolution approach is also applied to other pending claims of a specific carrier to ensure timely closure.

Step 4 - Drafting an Action Plan

Once the problem pertaining to a claim is identified, the case is assigned to our calling team to confirm the findings and establish understanding on the reasons for claim rejection. We then prepare an action plan to determine ways for faster claim payment. An action plan will establish the necessary steps to be initiated, such as change of address letters, dispatching physicians' enrolment forms, corrected claims and any additional documents.

Step 5 - Implement the Solution to all Outstanding Claims

Upon drafting the action plan to address specific problems, we create a solution approach that can be applied across all outstanding claims that fit within the specific problem category.
