Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) Coding Audits
With both accurate and inaccurate coding practices having a direct impact on revenue, it is essential to establish a coding audit program. When developing a coding audit program for a facility, CCM seeks to meet or exceed OIG requirements. Coding audits may identify any areas of deficiency that can directly affect your profitability.

Monthly, quarterly, or annual coding audits are recommended depending on initial base scores to ensure your coding staff has a working knowledge of coding guidelines. Your ASC will receive a detailed audit report with an explanation of variances as well as recommendations for each case.

Audit results include a complete analysis of codes utilized by the facility as well as credible documentation to assist the facility in understanding any variances found during the audit. Additionally, post-audit calls are available. CCM has flexible pricing based on the frequency of the audit, (semi-annually, quarterly, monthly, yearly), and the number of charts reviewed.
