Planning a Chargemaster Review

Hospital charges have become increasingly scrutinized over the years, and it is more important than ever to ensure you are capturing services and procedures appropriately and accurately. When it is time for you to schedule your Chargemaster Review, developing a clear plan can help ensure the review is completed successfully.

How to Plan a Chargemaster Review

A well-formulated plan for a Chargemaster Review should include the following:

• Identify and update invalid codes
• Consider inactivating items that have no historical usage
• Review prices against payer contracts and market benchmarks
• Analyze volume trends to determine if charge capture and processes issues exist
• Inspect system connectivity to ensure all charges entered end up on the bill
