The process of conducting and Order Entry mapping audit raises the awareness of the departmental staff as to the complexity and importance of maintaining the connectivity to the Chargemaster. Repairing broken "connections" in the mapping of the Order Entry systems to the Chargemaster can directly impact revenue to the facility, as MedCom has identified in several of our clients.
Case Study: Connectivity Can Affect Reimbursement
MedCom engaged with a large physician managed clinic to provide a Chargemaster Review. MedCom reviewed their 17 Order Entry Systems and found a multitude of "mapping errors" between the facility's Chargemaster and their OE systems. Within several months, MedCom corrected all necessary connectivity and improved net revenue by over $25 million.
