Payers count on volume to keep your team from appealing every denial. AppealAssist takes that advantage away by automating the whole appeal inside your EMR. Your team can appeal every denial and increase reimbursement up to 20% depending on denial type.
A strong appeal takes time your team doesn't have, so they pick their battles and the rest get written off. AppealAssist gives all your denials a high-quality appeal in a fraction of the time.
A low cost per appeal makes it practical to fight the low-dollar denials that usually get written off. AppealAssist applies adjustable logic to each denial type, draws on a payer policy library Long Tail keeps current, and works with your EMR and denial systems.
AppealAssist sorts each denial by payer, denial service category, and reason for denial.
Each case is assessed against the payer's published medical necessity criteria and the clinical record.
Cases are ranked by likelihood of overturn, with the payer requirements met or not, and a customized appeal is drafted for each.
Packets are generated to each payer's requirements and submitted.
At one cancer center, AppealAssist raised the overturn rate on medical necessity denials from 42% to 56%. Across AppealAssist partners, it cuts the average time per appeal from 40 minutes to 5, an 8x productivity gain, and lifts overturn rates by 10 or more percentage points. We'll work with your current processes and payer mix to build a detailed impact estimate.
