Case studies

Proven production performance across Insurance Discovery and Claim Status workflows. Every case study outlines the client profile, specialty focus, and transaction scale so you can assess applicability to your organization. To protect client confidentiality, proprietary organization names have been anonymized.

Who is financially responsible?

Funding type answers it. On a self-funded plan, the employer's plan pays the claim and a TPA or carrier administers it under federal ERISA rules. That administrator is where your appeals go. On a fully insured plan, the insurance carrier pays the claim and handles the appeal under the governing state's insurance law.

Where

Situs (the contract state) answers it. It is the state where the policy has jurisdiction, and it sends the appeal down the right path from the start.

    Added all eight Kaiser Permanente regions.

    Created a custom export file of active coverage results to speed up claim submission in Imagine.

  • $10Min revenue in the first month
    Insurance discovery

    A five-state RCM firm found $10M in revenue in month one and settled at $1.5M a month from month four

    Insurance discoveryHospitals and clinics

    The problem

    No insurance discovery program was in place when the engagement started.

    Outreach to patients by mail and phone to get insurance information was expensive, and patients called in to understand bills that insurance should have covered.

    What we did

    Ran All Payer Insurance Discovery across the self-pay accounts, starting with the existing backlog and continuing with new accounts each month.

    What changed

    $10M in revenue in month one, $6M in month two and $3M in month three as the backlog cleared.

    $1.5M a month from month four onward.

    Far less outbound mail and phone outreach, and fewer incoming calls from patients about their bills.

  • +25%successful claim status responses
    Claim status

    Claim status success rose 25% for an RCM firm serving a 1,000+ bed health system

    Claim statusHealth system

    The problem

    Too many phone calls and web lookups were needed to get claim status. Patient information, including member IDs, was often wrong.

    The goal was touchless transactions that lower labor cost.

    What we did

    Delivered Claim Status and Resolution with extended adjudication detail for major national payers and a multi-state Blue plan.

    Used automated data correction to fix patient information before it caused failed responses.

    Placed accounts with certain statuses into a future work queue with a trigger response.

    What changed

    25% more successful claim status responses.

    Allowed amount, patient responsibility and actionable denial descriptions now come back in the response and set up touchless transactions.

    Labor shifts from routine touches to high value claim denials.

  • 90%of claim status calls avoided
    Claim status

    An RCM firm serving a radiology and imaging group avoided 90% of its claim status calls by receiving a successful claim status response on 7,204 of 7,500 claims (96%)

    Claim statusRadiology and imaging

    The problem

    Data integrity issues in the provider inventory file blocked full automation. Without current claim status the team allocated accounts inefficiently.

    A contingency relationship with the client left no room for wasted effort.

    What we did

    Used AI Pattern Analyzer to correct patient and claim information before submitting the claim status request.

    Called the Anthem Prefix Finder API to see whether a member belonged to an out of state Anthem state plan.

    Added claim adjudication detail that explained the missing documentation behind a denial.

    What changed

    7,204 of 7,500 requests returned successful responses.

    90% call avoidance.

    Strong denial team performance led to added engagements for resources and technology services.
