CODING & OASIS

Home Care Agency Coding Services

Outsource home health coding to HPS to boost your agency’s clinical compliance.

Correct Coding Directly Impacts Home Health Agency Success

At Healthcare Provider Solutions, our US-based coders understand the critical role that correct coding plays in maintaining the financial health of agencies. Our coding department is staffed by a team of experienced and industry-leading specialists, all of whom are certified RNs. By outsourcing your coding needs to our specialists, you can ensure that your agency’s coding process is elevated to the highest level of accuracy and clinical compliance. This, in turn, directly impacts your agency’s ability to receive appropriate reimbursement.

After careful review of your current coding needs, an HPS solution will include our core coding services:

  • Comprehensive Review of Start of Care, Recertification, and Resumption
  • OASIS & Clinical Documentation Recommendations
  • Collaborate with Clinicians to Assign Appropriate Patient Diagnosis Codes

Coding & OASIS Review Audit

Coding & OASIS Review Audits will be conducted by HPS to ensure compliance and to identify issues that warrant additional training. HPS will review the charts for documentation and comprehensive assessment to support ICD-10 coding compliance and OASIS responses.

As a part of this review, we will be able to identify various clinical knowledge weaknesses in your staff regarding current Home Health regulations with a focus on specific forms supporting claims, required face-to-face documentation and both individual and clinical team documentation.

From this review we will be able to determine if there are any issues that may need to be addressed with coding team.  In addition, there will be calculations to determine if reimbursement is impacted by the coding corrections that need to be made.

The review will be conducted remotely with the Agency access to the EMR system. 

A detail report of the specific compliance issues noted during the review will be issued upon completion of the reviews with a summary of the findings. We recommend a conference call be setup after the Agency has reviewed the report to discuss the findings from the reviews. HPS will assist in the creation of a corrective action plan, if required.
