Clinical Admission Reviews
“Medically Unnecessary Service or Setting is the top error discovered in RAC audits.”
– CMS RAC Demonstration Evaluation Report
Conifer provides Clinical Admission Reviews in the ED that may improve accuracy of patient status designations.
Clinical Admission Reviews using InterQual™* clinical decision support may already be part of your hospital’s standard protocols. However, if you’re not using this tool afterhours and weekends when Emergency Department admissions are the most active, you may be unnecessarily increasing your case management staff’s workload. Our solution empowers your hospital and case managers with the standardized use of InterQual™ criteria applied 24/7 to
each patient.
With Conifer, your hospital may achieve these benefits:
- More effective use of Inpatient or Observation status
- Reduced expense of staffing overnight and weekend
case management - At-a-glance daily reporting
- Fewer claim denials for inappropriate setting by using
InterQual 24 hours a day
