Description

Product Description:

Protego Health is a platform that automates the process of preventing and, when necessary, appealing denied medical claims for healthcare providers. By cross-referencing payer policies, billing/coding guidelines, and medical records, it can utilize AI to identify problems before them become denials, rectify denials, and generate appeal letters.

About Covered Health:

None provided

Product Description:

Patients placed in the wrong bed status with improper documentation results in massive revenue loss and patient dissatisfaction.

Physicians can’t keep up with constantly changing criteria needed to admit patients to the hospital, and hospitals spend tons of money and resources fixing bed status issues retrospectively.

AdmissionCare provides the admitting physician with automated admission criteria - such as MCG - integrated directly into the EHR workflow to help document medical necessity that increases payer reimbursements and reduce denials.

How does it work?

  • Integrate into the clinician's EHR workflow
  • Determine the most appropriate bed status for each patient at admission
  • Synchronize payer criteria with the clinician's documentation
  • Collect revenue for the care provided, while avoiding costly denials
About EvidenceCare:

Product Capabilities

Using inputs from claims and ERA’s, Protego finds and surfaces the relevant policies, cross references the progress note, and generates claim-specific appeals up to 91% faster.

Protego sits within RCM workflows, and reads claim inputs in real time. The software cross references those inputs against billing/coding guidelines and medical policies in order to flag issues before claims are submitted, preventing denials. When denials do occur, Protego dramatically reduces ( up to 91%) the time it takes to research and generate an appeal. It also prevents staff from spending time on the wrong things by indicating where denials were indeed valid.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

None provided

Differentiators vs Competitors:

Prevention and Appeal in the same engine: Protego's intelligencs pulls together billing/coding guidelines and specific payer policies. Using that technology, we can prevent denials at the point of claim creation by reading claim inputs in real time, running them against those rules, and flagging potential errors. On the back end, since some denials are inevitable, we can automate the appeals using that same intelligence engine. 

Incumbent RCM software companies: Move slowly, denials not a core focus area, and with older solutions, the tech is not easy to use or modernize. Our sole focus is excellence in the prevention and addressing of denials. 

New Entrants / Direct Competitors: Very new, and in a fragmented physician market, there are billions of dollars in denials to attack. Our focus is on the truth. What does the payer say they will cover, and how does that match up to what was done?
