The ZOLL AR Boost Retroactive Medicaid Status tool helps reduce the number of self-pay accounts by automatically monitoring eligible claims for active Medicaid coverage status and releasing them for submission when coverage is found.
Automatically Convert Self-pay Accounts to Government Coverage
Many self-pay patients may be eligible for Medicaid, but without manually monitoring coverage status, providers and revenue cycle management (RCM) partners may not know whether or when to submit a claim retroactively. If active Medicaid coverage is not found during the timely filing period, eligible patients will miss out on government coverage to pay their healthcare bills, and providers will categorize them as self-pay, greatly increasing the risk of write-off. Providers and RCM partners can use the ZOLL AR Boost Retroactive Medicaid Status tool to help convert more self-pay accounts to government coverage, automatically.
The ZOLL AR Boost Retroactive Medicaid Status tool helps reduce the number of self-pay accounts by automatically monitoring eligible claims for active Medicaid coverage status and releasing them for submission when coverage is found. It monitors queued claims and determines when an eligible patient's Medicaid coverage becomes active, prompting RCM teams to submit claims retroactively. Successfully billing claims retroactively to Medicaid helps capture more revenue compared to self-pay accounts. It also helps prevent write-offs due to the miscategorization of eligible patients as self-pay.
The ZOLL AR Boost solution suite includes automated tools to find, correct, and verify patient and payer information in real time. It eliminates the need to query multiple databases, helping ensure that all revenue sources are identified, accelerating claims processing, and reducing claim denials.
