A Modernized Workflow for High-Speed Payment Accuracy

HealthEdge Source facilitates a "virtuous cycle" of ideation, testing, implementation, and analysis. This end-to-end process dramatically increases deployment speed, allowing health plans to move from concept to production savings with unprecedented agility. Learn more about how to take a proactive approach with HealthEdge Source.

  1. Test and Validate with What-If Modeling (SWIM): Forecast the financial impact of new edits using historical claims data before deployment. This provides the concrete data needed to gain internal approval and refine logic.
  2. Collect Real-Time Data with Monitor Mode: Run new edits passively on live production claims without affecting adjudication. This builds confidence by tracking the potential impact of policies in a live environment without financial risk.
  3. Educate Providers with Informational Edits: Set an edit's disposition to "informational" for a defined period. This returns a message on the Explanation of Benefits (EOB) to proactively educate providers on new policies before they impact reimbursement.
  4. Automate Retrospective Analysis with RCM: The Retroactive Change Management (RCM) tool automates the identification of claims paid incorrectly prior to a policy change, streamlining recovery and facilitating transparent communication with providers.

Building Custom Payment Policies with Advanced Custom Edits

The Advanced Custom Edit tool allows payment integrity teams to design and implement highly specific policies via an intuitive, point-and-click interface.

Use Case

The Problem

The Solution within Source

Lab Duplicates

A facility and an independent lab both bill for the same service, resulting in a double payment.

Create an edit that identifies a facility lab claim and searches the member's history for a matching service from an independent lab on the same date.

Therapy Frequency Limits

Over-utilization of therapy services leads to waste and unnecessary costs.

Build an edit that sums units of therapy services within a calendar week and denies any units that exceed the plan's weekly limit.

E&M Downcoding

A facility bills a high-level emergency room code, but the corresponding physician claim indicates a low-level service.

Construct a cross-provider edit that flags a high-level facility E&M claim and denies it if a low-level physician E&M claim exists for the same date of service.
