Our practice has seen denial rates creep up over the last two quarters, mostly tied to "insufficient documentation to support medical necessity" on E/M visits (https://www.mediknocx.com/). I wanted to open this up as a general discussion — what's working for other practices to keep denial rates down?
A few things we're already doing:
Weekly chart audits on a sample of claims before submission
Coder feedback loop directly with providers, not just billing staff
Payer-specific denial tracking spreadsheet
Would love to hear what else people are doing, especially anything that's made a measurable difference.
