Dialog with Anthem Inc. - How Hassles of Claims Denial Management Are Reducing Through the CORE Code Combinations

Numerous claims are denied by a health plan, which negatively impacts a provider, practice or hospital revenue cycle, as well as adding to the health plan's claim processing cost.

Many of these denials occur because, for example, specific information is missing from the claim, yet the information is available. This is why using well coupled Claim Adjustment Reason Codes (CARCs) and Remittance Advice Remark Codes (RARCs) play a vital role in streamlining claims submission.
 
Join us on October 4th to learn how the CAQH CORE 360: Uniform Use of CARCs and RARCs Rule is providing Anthem Inc. with uniformity in the use of claim payment adjustment/denial codes resulting in a more efficient and accurate process to pay claims. Margaret (Meg) Kutz, Senior Business Consultant at Anthem Inc., will share the system improvements and data governance criteria Anthem executed to take full advantage of the efficiencies being brought about by the CAQH CORE 360 Rule and the CORE Code Combinations.
