REDUCING AUDIT RISK WITH
M.E.A.T. CRITERIA: VALUABLE INSIGHTS
AND LATEST TECHNOLOGY
As a provider, you understand the importance of HCC Coding. You probably
spend a good amount of time making sure you add the correct HCC codes to
your documentation, and staying up to date with adequate supporting
documentation for HCC codes – all this to decrease your risk of lower
payments, audits, and financial penalties.
HCC Coding
M.E.A.T. Criteria
In order to document accurately, healthcare
organizations use M.E.A.T. criteria standards. Following
M.E.A.T. criteria standards ensures healthcare provider
organizations, coding companies, practice management
consultants and revenue cycle companies regularly
monitor and audit for correct HCC coding.
What Does M.E.A.T. Stand For?
Technology For Meat
Criteria: HCC Validator
In order to better audit documentation against
MEAT criteria, Inferscience offers an HCC
Validator product. The HCC Validator takes the
guesswork out of risk adjustment
documentation, giving you more confidence
that patients’ HCC diagnoses are documented
accurately and thoroughly.
The HCC Validator:
Features
• Intelligent technology that analyzes and audits
diagnosis codes.
• Pass or fail indication of each HCC Code documented.
• The system provides information about what needs
to be reviewed and corrected to meet the correct
criteria.
• Data sources and rule logic to define audits are
provided.
Benefits
• Time savings.
• Accuracy.
• Helps you to confirm the integrity of your HCC
submission.
• Helps you ensure that the health status submitted by
the plan is supported by a health record.
• Helps you ensure their documentation complies with
HCC reporting requirements.
