Defensive Audits
Insurance carriers are not in business to pay claims. They are in
business to make money. One thing they often do is to insist on auditing
high-dollar claims to find “issues” on the claim so that they can
reduce the amount they owe to the hospital. Our auditors are
extremely good at finding ADDITIONAL charges as well as defending
the charges already billed.
Most of our clients find that requests from carriers for audits
dramatically decrease after we have represented them for a few
months. Not only do we find additional dollars, but we also give
our clients feedback and recommendations to clean up any “issues”
that they do have.
