Healthcare organizations are under tremendous financial pressure to accurately identify risk-adjusted diseases to ensure maximum yet allowable Medicare reimbursements. Identify more than are properly documented and you risk severe penalties. Identify less than what you are due, and you leave earned income on the table.
Today’s market offers a range of sophisticated Natural Language Processing (NLP) solutions that can help provider organizations detect and uncover previously ignored or miscoded diagnosis codes to ensure proper reimbursements. The problem is every NLP vendor does their best to convince you their solution is the best.
How can you evaluate competing solutions side by side for how they perform within your documentation and coding system and case mix? Which NLP engines can truly help you properly balance the fear of penalties against the greed of maximum collections?
NLP Engine Selection Considerations
- How to avoid solutions that create more problems than they solve
- Avoiding solutions that do not perform as advertised for your case mix
- Fear of sharing patient data with an outside vendor
- Preventing drawn-out implementation and training process
- Overcoming challenges to adopting high-tech solutions in-house
- Changing from a known risk adjustment process
NLP Engine Vendor Witness Test
- Solutions that have been proven in the market
- Measurably completing chart reviews in less time
- Demonstrated accuracy of diagnosis code reporting
- Reducing risk adjustment coder administrative burdens
- Maximizing ROI without opening the door to potential penalties
There has been an ongoing debate among decision-makers when it comes to choosing fear over greed or greed over fear. The adoption of natural language processing in healthcare is rising because of its recognized potential to search, analyze and interpret mammoth amounts of patient datasets. Using advanced medical algorithms and machine learning in healthcare, NLP technology has the potential to harness relevant insights and concepts from clinical notes that were previously considered by the healthcare industry as buried in text data form. NLP in healthcare can accurately give voice to the unstructured data of the healthcare universe, giving incredible insight into understanding quality, improving methods, and better results for patients.
