Abstract:
|
As part of the Quality Issues in Healthcare session organized by the Section on Quality and Productivity, this discussion -- with a less techncial approach -- will explore the various ways that hospitals can adequately calculate the productivity and accuracy of registration and coding staff, and how these measures ought to link to big-picture metrics like denied claims and claim-edit rejections. We will explore the approaches developed by one Midwestern hospital system to quantify and improve performance when no clear metrics or best practices exist industry-wide.
