Osi announces accurate hcc coding services for healthcare providers

OSI Announces Accurate HCC Coding Services for Healthcare Providers Medicare Advantage (MA) plans rely on the Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCC) system for reimbursement.

Healthcare providers that participate in Medicare insurance plans should use accurate HCC codes on their claims submitted to CMS. Outsource Strategies International (OSI), with its reliable HCC coding services can help busy practitioners receive a higher return on investment (ROI), complete accurate risk assessment and submit error-free claims; it will also allow them to focus on providing quality patient care.

Care and diagnosis documented in the Chart/Progress Notes and clinical findings are to be reported using the relevant ICD-9-CM codes and converted to HCC codes. The HCC codes data is submitted to CMS that calculates Medicare Risk Adjustment.

The team of professional MRA coders at this reliable medical coding company has a complete

understanding of the HCC process and risk adjustment, as well as its effects on the provider, the member, the MA plan, and overall reimbursement. These AAPC-certified coders can report all diagnoses that impact patient evaluation, care and treatment including the main reason for visit, chronic conditions and co-existing acute conditions. They are also ICD-10 ready.

Mock audits performed by this professional team can help identify issues such as over coding and under coding, both of which will ultimately have a negative effect on revenue inflow. They use a standard workflow to review, annotate and apply HCC codes to medical records.
