HIA performed a 65-record review this year for Client S and found an opportunity with 15 of them. 9 had an increased reimbursement with a total of $43,228 found.

That is a lot of money for such a small sample size!

The remaining six records had a decreased reimbursement with a total of $7,072 found.
