Enhancing the Revenue Cycle Through HIM Integration

Presented on: Thursday, September 10, 2020 | 1-2:30 p.m. Eastern

Presented by: Rose T. Dunn, MBA, RHIA, CPA, FACHE, FHFMA, FAHIMA, CHPS

In many organizations, HIM is brought into the fold after a claim has processed and been denied. Earlier integration of HIM into revenue cycle operations can make all the difference. Expanding HIM’s role to back-end claims processing and front-end registration allows for common causes of claim rejections and denials to be caught proactively.

During this 90-minute webinar, Rose T. Dunn, MBA, RHIA, CPA, FACHE, FHFMA, FAHIMA, CHPS, will closely examine HIM’s role in supporting the revenue cycle. HIM can provide critical assistance with the charge description master (CDM), coding edits, claim edit audits, and denials. Dunn will detail the myriad ways HIM can greatly enhance an organization’s revenue cycle performance, reducing audit risk and ensuring cleaner claims.

At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to:

• Identify potential gaps in the revenue cycle, both for outpatient and inpatient settings
