Key Features and Benefits of Revenue Recovery Services
MCA Medical Billing Solutions, L.L.C.'s Revenue Recovery Services deliver targeted, data-driven support for Skilled Nursing Facilities identifying sources of revenue loss and deploying proven recovery strategies that maximize reimbursements and restore financial momentum.
Underpayment Identification and Recovery
Many SNFs lose significant revenue not from outright denials but from payer underpayments that go undetected. Our team analyzes remittance data (835 transactions) against contracted rates and fee schedules to identify systematic underpayments, incorrect contractual adjustments, and improper payer recoupments then initiates formal disputes and corrections to recover the difference
Denial-Driven Revenue Recovery
Our team identifies and categorizes all denied claims by denial code, payer, and root cause, prioritizing accounts by recovery potential and timely filing urgency. We correct underlying issues coding errors, missing documentation, authorization failures and resubmit or appeal claims through the appropriate channels to recover denied revenue efficiently.
Aging Account Resolution
Older receivables require specialized recovery strategies to remain viable. Our SNF revenue recovery solutions include targeted outreach for claims in the 90-, 180-, and 365-day aging buckets, applying payer-specific tactics to reopen, rework, and resolve accounts before timely filing or appeal windows close permanently.
Medicare and Medicaid Recovery Expertise
With deep familiarity across Medicare Part A, Medicare Part B, Medicaid, and Medicare Advantage plans, our team applies the correct recovery pathways for each payer type. This includes filing reopening requests for finalized Medicare claims, pursuing Medicaid reconsiderations, and engaging Medicare Advantage payers through plan-specific appeal processes to recover reimbursements across all revenue streams.
Proactive Claim Monitoring and Follow-Up
Revenue recovery requires persistence. Our team actively monitors the status of submitted, resubmitted, and appealed claims through payer portals and EDI tracking systems, initiating timely follow-up based on payer-specific processing timelines. This proactive approach prevents claims from stalling and accelerates the movement of funds into your facility.
Revenue Recovery Services Process Overview
Our SNF Revenue Recovery Services follow a structured, results-focused approach that identifies lost revenue, deploys targeted recovery strategies, and delivers measurable improvements to your facility's financial performance. Here's how we work with you:
- Revenue Loss Assessment and Opportunity Identification: We begin with a detailed review of your billing data, remittance files, denial reports, and AR aging to identify all sources of revenue leakage. This includes denied claims, underpayments, write-offs, unresolved accounts, and coding-related losses. Our assessment quantifies your recovery opportunity and prioritizes accounts by dollar value and recoverability giving your team a clear, actionable view of where revenue is being lost.
- Payer and Denial Analysis: Our team categorizes denied and underpaid claims by payer, denial reason code (CO, PR, OA), and root cause. We identify systemic issues such as recurring authorization failures, documentation deficiencies, or coding inaccuracies that are driving the majority of revenue loss. This analysis informs both the immediate recovery effort and longer-term prevention strategies.
- Recovery Strategy Development: Based on our findings, we build a customized SNF revenue recovery plan with clear timelines, payer-specific tactics, and prioritized work queues. For each category of lost revenue, we select the appropriate recovery pathway claim correction and resubmission, formal appeal, underpayment dispute, payer reopening request, or escalation and assign resources accordingly.
- Claim Rework, Resubmission, and Appeals: Our team executes the recovery plan by correcting and resubmitting claims with the necessary billing updates, clinical documentation, and supporting evidence. For denied claims, we manage the full appeals lifecycle from redetermination and reconsideration through Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) appeals ensuring each account receives the level of advocacy needed for successful recovery.
- Underpayment Dispute and Reconciliation: For identified underpayments, we prepare formal dispute submissions with supporting contractual and regulatory documentation. We track dispute outcomes through payer correspondence and remittance reconciliation, ensuring that corrected payments are received and accurately posted to your accounts.
- Reporting, Insights, and Ongoing Recovery Support: Throughout the engagement, we provide regular reporting on recovery progress, cash collected, appeal outcomes, and remaining opportunity. We share insights on denial trends and root causes to help your team prevent future revenue loss. Where appropriate, we transition resolved accounts to ongoing revenue cycle management to sustain the gains achieved through the recovery process.
