Chart Auditing Service
Are your charting and billing practices up to industry and legal standards?
Are your charting and billing practices up to industry and legal standards?
With this merger, we’ve taken our chart audits to the next level. PCS brings decades of compliance expertise to your practice, offering detailed reviews of your charts to make sure you’re meeting industry standards and avoiding costly penalties.
Here’s how it works:
EyeCode/PCS offers two different audit services to serve the unique needs of your practice: Comprehensive Chart Audit Service and Fraud & Abuse (F&A) Chart Audit Service.
Our Comprehensive Chart Audit goes beyond medical records to meticulously analyze billing and coding practices as well. 20 charts per provider is recommended but customizable packages are available for larger offices or practices with multiple locations. Once the audit is completed you’ll receive a thorough report of any documentation, billing, and coding issues we’ve found as well as insight on the financial impact of any lost revenue due to charting or coding errors. The cost is $1500 per 20 patient encounters, and you are not charged until the audit is completed.
Our Basic Audit meets the minimum audit recommendations from CMS. Much like a real medical record audit, billed services are compared against the medical record documentation but only to determine if the services should be paid or not. This audit is priced at $750 per 10 patient encounters.
A Comprehensive Chart Audit is an in-depth review of your medical records, billing, and coding practices. It ensures that your documentation complies with current regulations and identifies any areas where you might be losing revenue due to errors.
Non-compliance with billing, coding, and medical documentation laws can lead to severe consequences, including hefty fines and removal from provider panels. Additionally, inadequate documentation can result in significant revenue loss.
While CMS allows providers to self-audit their records, PCS recommends a professional audit initially and then at least once every 3-5 years to ensure ongoing compliance and optimal reimbursement.
