New Partnership Enhances Coding Services and Ultimately Profitability

February 7, 2012 / Melody Smith / Comments Off on New Partnership Enhances Coding Services and Ultimately Profitability

Health Endeavors has entered into a strategic partnership with Aviacode, a medical coding and compliance service. Health Endeavors offers a web-based compliance and management software portal that provides coding and clinical documentation audits. The portal also answers coding questions and provides recommendations for reducing risk. This new partnership will add value by shortening the revenue cycle and increasing the efficiency for providers.

This interesting piece of news was found on MarketWatch in their article, “Health Endeavors and Aviacode Partnership Expands Compliance Solutions for Healthcare Organizations.” Medical coding requires specialized expertise and systems tailored to the regulatory requirements in which health care providers, hospitals, and doctors deliver their services. Training is very important, especially with the impending ICD-10 transition. That is why Access Innovations, Inc. provides training to a client’s staff and then offers quality assurance and validation services that can:

  • Minimize the risk of a coding error
  • Identify inappropriate or inadvertently applied tags
  • Display a “map” of coding distributions to allow management to get a bird’s-eye view of the coding assignment flow.
