Bill Review Overview

Combining industry-leading bill review technology with highly trained and experienced analysts gives Definiti’s clients a competitive edge. Bill review is not simply automation or a data entry transaction to us. While technology can provide speed and efficiency by automating state fee schedule rules and regulations, it’s our bill review analysts who rigorously evaluate each medical bill along with corresponding documentation to ensure we achieve the best possible results. Our primary focus is to deliver the “Best Net Value” while maintaining a superior level of compliance, accuracy, and efficiency.

Specialty Bill Review

Specialty Bill Review (SBR) – For services not covered by state fee schedule or PPO, our SBR program ensures our clients are only liable for the “fair and reasonable” payment of medical bills.

  • Fair value pricing
  • Complex file review
  • Out of Network negotiations
  • Inpatient/Outpatient line item audit

Once a bill has been audited by our team for accuracy (i.e. the service billed is consistent with service rendered), the service is benchmarked against several accepted payment methodologies. This allows us to establish a base allowance that is then used for negotiation or payment recommendation. Our Specialty Bill Review program generates savings ranging from 55% to 85% off billed charges.

National Access – Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO)

Definiti offers a comprehensive and highly configurable network solution that provides clients with access to over 20 leading national and regional PPO networks.

Using a best-of-class approach, Definiti provides clients with analytical support using our bill review platform’s network optimization tools and reports. Actual client data can be used to obtain an objective comparison of multiple network configurations and tiers, with the primary goal of achieving optimal network savings and penetration. As networks are assessed objectively, using the same criteria, biases and inconsistencies potentially introduced with network self-analysis are eliminated.

PPO network offerings can be quickly and easily customized by the client, geographic location, bill type, and hierarchy (primary, secondary, tertiary, etc.). Additionally, the automated application of contractual network discounts is inherent within the bill review system to ensure maximum savings below fee schedule.

Ancillary Networks

In addition to providing conventional PPO network offerings, Definiti also offers access and connectivity to multiple ancillary networks, including:

  • Imaging and Diagnostics
  • PT, Chiro, OT, FCE
  • Implants
  • DME
  • Transport and Translation
  • Home Health
  • Pain Management and Skilled Nursing
  • Dental
  • Catastrophic

A key feature of this offering is not only the Prospective automation of ancillary network rates but the Retrospective automation of rates, including access to provider “leakage” reports that can be used to identify and track network providers billing out-of-network.
