Accelify has released a Medicaid billing tool designed specifically for public schools that delivers unprecedented visibility into the claiming cycle and enables significant reimbursement increases.
“School-based Medicaid billing has a complex set of regulations and processes,” said Alex Brecher, Chief Executive Officer, Accelify, LLC. “AcceliCLAIM is a unique solution in that it makes the billing process completely transparent. The exceptional reporting functionality of the system helps schools understand where revenue is coming from and clearly points to areas of opportunity.”
For many schools, the biggest challenge with Medicaid billing is collecting the data required to build claim files. This information is typically housed in different systems and databases, such as student information systems, health provider databases, individualized education plan systems, and service tracking systems. AcceliCLAIM integrates data from multiple systems to identify eligible services based on federal and state validations, which typically include parental consent, IEP authorization, physician orders, provider qualifications, and Medicaid eligibility.
AcceliCLAIM produces electronic claim files and imports remittance reports from the state, creating a one-to-one viewpoint on each claimed service. Being able to see why a specific service was denied leads to the identification of larger issues. With this visibility, schools can implement processes that strengthen the claiming program and increase reimbursements.
