Delivering HCC Guidance Directly to Providers at the Point of Care

PINC AI™ Stanson's Clinical Decision Support (CDS) can help organizations capture hierarchical condition category (HCC) codes by implementing alerts to prompt providers to add the necessary codes in the electronic health record (EHR) workflow. The goal of HCC documentation is to capture a patient’s true clinical picture and achieve accurate risk scores while providing high-level care. CodingGuide offers HCC guidance designed to be actionable and is built to limit the provider’s administrative burden and ensure accurate reimbursement.

Benefits of HCC Alerts

Available in EHR Workflow

Actionable HCC alerts are made available in the EHR at the point of care and are designed to assist a provider in identifying whether a new or different HCC code should be considered to optimize diagnosis coding.

Suggests New Codes

With CodingGuide, HCC alerts are not solely reliant on prior coding history, nor do they focus primarily on the recapture of codes. This helps enable providers to identify new codes that have not been previously documented by providers, which may result in a year-over-year increase in Risk Adjustment Factor (RAF) scores.

Expanded HCC Content

We offer more than 40 HCC alerts covering a variety of conditions including diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, benzodiazepine and opioid dependence, chronic kidney disease and more that can be made available as part of your clinical decision support (CDS) library.

Actionable Alerts

The alerts are designed to be actionable within the EHR workflow and built to limit the provider’s administrative burden by avoiding the need to remember to update the code later or navigate to a different part of the EHR to complete the task.

Provider Efficiencies

The alerts are designed to increase provider efficiencies across the care continuum, with the goal to help improve patient care, risk score outcomes, billing compliance and the potential to optimize Medicare Advantage reimbursement.

We were hitting 40 percent response rates on these alerts, which is high, and I didn’t receive any complaints from providers.
