We’re continuing to look for ways to improve Prochant Pulse, our proprietary technology platform, so we can continue to stay at the forefront of innovation in revenue cycle management (RCM). To that end, we're excited to introduce several recent AI-driven enhancements for denials and appeals management through our AR Efficiency initiative that will improve the way our clients manage accounts receivable (AR) and drive efficiency. These updates are designed to increase collections, reduce Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and streamline workflows, making our team more effective.
Our first enhancement focuses on data collection and AI integration to better track and predict denials. Our AI foundation includes tools like PDF reading, decision support for working denials and claim scrubbing to predict denial likelihoods before submission. Some of these tools will include:
Guided with AI-driven work aids, these enhancements are designed to support workflow efficiency and accuracy.
Appeals management is a critical component of AR, comprising 10-15% of what we do, and we've made it more efficient with a structured workflow integrated into Pulse. Previously, managing appeals required switching between multiple systems to gather patient and insurance information, and lacked templates, often leading to disjointed efforts. Now, with a four-step "Appeals Wizard,” all necessary tools are in one place:
1. Input payer denial codes, HCPC codes and patient and insurance information.
2. Construct PDFs with relevant documentation.
3. Fill out insurer-specific appeal templates.
4. Automated transmission of the appeal via fax, print or portal.
This update has shown preliminary results of a 33% reduction in time spent on creating appeal packets, from 12 minutes to eight minutes, while also improving success rates for acceptance thanks to a more structured and consistent approach.
These enhancements to Prochant Pulse mark a significant step forward in our commitment to AI integration, innovation and AR efficiency in order to increase collections, reduce DSO and improve overall performance.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to innovate and enhance Prochant Pulse.
