Managing the complexities of the Chargemaster is not an easy task
|
Keeping up with on-going regulatory and coding updates in the Chargemaster database often proves to be a significant challenge for hospital staff. In most facilities, the Chargemaster system itself does little to imrove the chances of accuracy, offering little ability to store change history, run user reports, or search data dynamically. Isn't it time that you were amazed by a software product that can assist you through this difficult process?

With a track record of success, CMNavigator can handle the challenge
CMNavigator was developed by MedCom Solutions as an in-house software tool and has been used internally for several years by our clinical consultants to coordinate Chargemaster Management for our clients. We have recently repackaged the software so hospitals can benefit from the same tools that have contributed to our success. This software is proven to effectively manage the ongoing changes required to maintain an accurate and compliant Chargemaster.
CMNavigator provides pertinent regulatory resource files at your fingertips
References included within the software include searchable libraries of:
- CPT and HCPCS Codes
- CMS and Fiscal Intermediary Resources
- Revenue Codes, Modifiers, and Fee Schedules
- Market Pricing Data
Dynamic reporting capabilities quickly put actionable data in the hands of your staff.
One of key challenges to maintaining a Chargemaster is getting all of the departments to take ownership in the Chargemaster. With standard departmental reports as well as in-depth diagnostic reporting, CMNavigator highlights problems and potential ommisions by identifying invalid codes, inappropriate codes, pricing and regulatory issues. Additionaly, staff education through Medcom regulatory updates enhances the understanding of changes to the Chargemaster.
CMNavigator offers a systematic approach to manage changes.
CMNavigator provides a mechanism for hospitals to handle chargemaster updates through standardized submission of requests, the movement of requests through an approval chain, and implementation of updates. The software retains historical record changes, including who made the request, what updates were made, and when the updates were implemented. This level of detail can be a powerful tool to help manage limited resources by understanding the volume trends for Chargemaster updates, monitoring the accuracy of requests, and promoting increased accountability for timely and accurate updates.
