By reducing denials, decreasing rejections, and accounts receivable cycles, Ingenix ClaimsManager Facility helps maximize facility revenue potential
ANI HEALTHCARE FINANCE CONFERENCE, SAN DIEGO, June 25, 2007 — Ingenix, a leading health information technology company, is bringing its widely recognized claims editing solution to health care facilities. Unveiled today at the ANI Healthcare Finance Conference in San Diego, Ingenix ClaimsManager Facility is a highly sophisticated yet easy to use claims editor for facility claims.
Designed to deliver the same claims editing functionality that has been available in ClaimsManager Professional for more than 10 years, it offers a solution to identify inappropriately coded outpatient and inpatient facility claims before they are submitted to payers. This can result in faster turnaround of payment, fewer accounts receivable days and a reduction in rework required to resubmit claims a second time.
“Given the resounding success of our ClaimsManager Professional product, we have decided to address the facilities market with a superior claims editing tool,” said Steve Greenberg, senior vice president of Ingenix. “Everybody wants to get paid faster, and our new ClaimsManager Facility will accelerate and optimize revenue cycles for customers.”
Rules Creation Manager
Ingenix ClaimsManager Facility features a Rules Creation Manager that affords facilities the flexibility to deal with ever-changing payer relationships. Claims editing practices can be customized so that claims are automatically checked against the rules that apply to specific payer contracts before submission. This approach reduces denials, decreases rejections and speeds the accounts receivable cycle. Rules Creation Manager allows users to build rules-based claims-editing practices based on department, provider or other criteria.
Featuring some of the most robust database editing functionality in the marketplace, Ingenix ClaimsManager Facility can help customers attain financial insights that contribute to better business decisions. It can also help outpatient and inpatient facilities comply more easily with Medicare and commercial regulations.
More than 325 academic groups and specialty practices today recognize the expertise and dependability that ClaimsManager Professional brings to their practice. With its new claims editing product, Ingenix brings the same level of expertise and proven dependability to the facilities market.
