Claim status inquiries
What’s at stake for your organization?
When a provider manually runs a claim status check, on average it takes 19 minutes and costs providers $9.37.1
In 2020, providers made 238 million claim status inquiries by phone, fax or email. Most payers still limit the number of inquiries allowed per call, which means more calls, more work for staff and more time wasted. And that’s before adding in the time it takes to update claim statuses in practice management (PM) or hospital information systems (HIS).
New financial performance demands are forcing revenue cycle, financial services and billing professionals to reevaluate their approach to claim monitoring. To unlock the cost savings and smarter workflows they need, it’s critical to deploy tech and tools that can easily automates the process.
