MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS
Health Information Exchange is an Emerging Trend
Healthcare denials often hinder people’s healthcare and result in a loss of revenue for providers. Healthcare Information Exchange (HIEs) become crucial for enhancing claim accuracy and supporting denial management. Sharing patient data across health organizations allows the interoperability of health systems. This unique collaboration enables timely access to accurate patient records, which is important for coding practices and informed billing. By allowing HIEs, health providers can easily verify patient eligibility in real-time, minimizing the chance of incomplete documentation and coding errors. HIEs are also enabling smoother communication pathways between insurers and providers and making it easy to correct discrepancies. It indicates that HIEs have huge potential to reduce claims denials due to inaccurate or incomplete patient information.
Surge of New Technologies in Healthcare Denial Management
In the U.S., healthcare systems face significant challenges in managing healthcare denials from insurance claims. These conditions often lead to financial difficulties for hospitals and medical practices. However, recent advantages in technology, especially Artificial Intelligence (AI) are changing how health organizations approach claim accuracy and denial management. As of 2024, around 45% of U.S. hospitals are using AI in their revenue cycle management (RCM) practices. Denial management is one of the essential parts of RCM. AI supports and automates aspects of claim processing and reduces the burden of administrative tasks for hospitals. AI can analyze vast volumes of claims data to identify patterns and predict likely denials. In addition, by using machine learning (ML), healthcare professionals/providers can proactively identify issues before they arise. AI-driven predictive analytics help to evaluate claims’ chances of denial based on historical data and allow the administrative task force to correct documentation issues and coding errors in advance.
Attention Toward Patient-Centric Approach for Denial Management
Patient information-related denials ranked among the most common hospital claim denials, and they pose a significant burden on patients and their health, as well as cause revenue drain for hospitals. Where patient centricity becomes a leading factor that supports to decline rate of healthcare claim denials. This approach becomes the primary focus for claim denial management for the hospital’s revenue recovery and reputation with patients.
