Looking for a fresh approach? Here’s how HIA’s coding services are different:
We
DON’T provide offshore coding resources.
We
DO only employ US-based coding professionals credentialed by AHIMA.
We
DON’T subcontract with other individuals or vendors.
We
DO employ Coding Specialists that are full-time salaried employees.
We
DON’T expect our coders to educate themselves.
We
DO provide multi-faceted continuing education and a monthly quality assurance program.
We
DON’T want to be the biggest company in the industry.
We
DO have a smaller firm that is adaptable to meet our client’s varying needs.
We
DON’T want to be the least expensive company in the industry.
We
DO believe that high quality doesn’t come at the lowest price.
We
DON’T answer to a Corporate Board of Directors removed from the coding profession.
We
DO answer to our owner,
Betsy Bailey, a former HIM Director and coding professional.
It’s imperative, in today’s challenging healthcare environment, that organizations demand complete and accurate coding practices from their vendors if they want:
Appropriate and timely reimbursement
Representative quality measures
Improved CMI
Reduction in payor denials
Mitigation of compliance risks
HIA may not
be
the answer for every organization, but if your
organization is looking to
achieve sustained results
, let’s chat.
