Performance standards we operate to. Actual results vary by specialty, payer mix, and starting position — your free assessment establishes your own baseline.

Denials prevented before submission

AI denial prediction scores every claim pre-submission and routes high-risk claims to specialists — 31% fewer denials before prevention even reaches the front desk.

48-hour first touch, guaranteed

Every denial categorized, corrected, and moving again within two business days — measured, reported, and staffed around the clock.

Root causes eliminated for good

Every denial is coded to a cause and fed back upstream — registration fixes, auth workflows, coder education — so the same denial stops recurring.

Appeals that actually win

Evidence-built appeals with policy citations and clinical support overturn 65%+ of what we contest — because we only contest what we can win.

The stakes

The problem, in numbers

The honest diagnosis — what this challenge actually costs healthcare organizations that leave it unmanaged.

~10%

of claims denied at the average practice — and climbing

Payer automation is tightening every year. Practices that treat denials as background noise watch the rate creep upward while margins thin.

60%

of denied claims are never reworked at all

That's earned revenue voluntarily forfeited — care delivered, claim valid, money abandoned because nobody had the time or the process to fight for it.

Repeat

denials are process defects, not bad luck

The same registration gap, the same missing auth, the same coding edit — month after month. Working denials without eliminating causes is bailing a boat with a hole in it.

Our solution

The average practice never reworks 60% of denied claims — that's earned revenue written off for lack of follow-through. Our denial team touches every denial within 48 hours: categorize, correct, resubmit or appeal, and track to resolution.

Resolution is only half the service. Every denial is coded to a root cause — registration error, missing auth, coding mismatch, payer behavior — and we fix the upstream process so the same denial stops recurring. Clients typically see denial rates fall below 5%.

What's included

  • 48-hour first touch on every denial
  • Root-cause categorization and trending
  • Corrected claim resubmission
  • Upstream process fixes to prevent recurrence
  • Payer-specific denial pattern tracking
  • Monthly denial scorecard by cause and payer

In the field

How organizations like yours use it

USE CASE 01

A behavioral health network went from 22% to 5.2% denials

Root-cause analysis showed authorization and enrollment gaps driving over half the denials. Fixing the upstream workflows — not just appealing harder — collapsed the rate in seven months.

USE CASE 02

An orthopedic group ended its surgical claim denial streak

Global-period modifier errors were denying 13% of surgical claims. Modifier discipline at coding plus targeted appeals on the backlog recovered the revenue and killed the pattern.

USE CASE 03

A family practice automated its eligibility denials away

40% of its denials traced to coverage surprises. Batch verification 48 hours pre-visit eliminated the category — the practice now sees eligibility denials in single digits per month.
