Future-Ready: 10 Best Practices To Improve Prepay Claims Editing

Mark Turner, Vice President, Clinical Content, LyricIn the fast-evolving and intricate landscape of payment integrity, the value of prepay editing is paramount. As powerful AI and advanced analytics are being applied earlier in the claim adjudication process, the importance of next-generation claim editing capabilities will separate health plan leaders from laggards.If you’re equating claims editing with medical savings alone—you’re missing the boat and the opportunity. Because forward-thinking payment integrity and claims operations leaders recognize that prepay editing, and its underlying best practices, improve administrative costs, plan member satisfaction, and provider relationships.  Here are ten best practices of prepay editing, which health plans should be using today:Staying Agile with Regulatory UpdatesIn a sector governed by stringent regulations, it’s crucial for health plans to stay updated on policies and regulations from authorities that include CMS and the AMA. This proactive approach helps ensure compliance and efficiency, positioning your plan as a leader in payment integrity. Fostering Strategic Alignment in Claims EditingFinding the right balance between maximizing savings and maintaining positive provider relations is critical. Building “better bridges” between plans and providers involves both applying traditional sources of rules, as well as plan policies rooted in evidence-based data and resources. This approach improves trust and transparency, leading to more sustainable, mutually beneficial relationships with providers.   3.  Harnessing AI for Enhanced AnalyticsAI offers transformative potential in analyzing healthcare claims, enabling plans to identify trends and anomalies effectively. When combined with human oversight, AI becomes a powerful tool for enhancing decision-making processes. This technology should be utilized to amplify the capabilities of your team, including experienced medical directors and certified coders, ensuring a deeper and more accurate analysis of claims data.Periodically Reviewing CarveoutsRegular re-evaluation of exclusions and the scenarios that lead to them is essential
