Healthcare information systems provider CPU Medical Management Systems has released a new claims-tracking module for its MED/FM 6.1 practice management system.
The new claims-tracking module increases claims tracking, performs various actions without human intervention, and automatically assigns claims to specific collectors, according to San Diego-based CPU.
The module automatically classifies claims into one of four types: delinquent, denied, underpaid, or claims requiring follow-up. Each classification can then be given a predefined set of actions based on the explanation of benefits (EOB) or remark codes, including sending a letter to a patient, writing off the charge, and releasing the claim to the guarantor, the company said.
Result codes track and report the actions that collectors perform for each charge, such as changing the claims classification, resubmitting the claim, changing charge data, sending statements or letters, and assigning the claim to the collection module in MED/FM 6.1, CPU said.
