To help lab leaders meet these demands, XIFIN today introduced XIFIN RPM 11, a transformative revenue cycle management (RCM) platform that features a new level of robust automation, enhanced portals, and advanced analytic and artificial intelligence (AI) options that diagnostic providers can use to respond to increasing market demands, patient expectations and reimbursement challenges.

Based on XIFIN analysis, approximately 35% of all diagnostic procedures have errors that need correction before they can be reimbursed (dirty claims), which translates to upwards of $20 billion per year in either delayed or permanently lost reimbursement in the U.S. alone. XIFIN RPM 11s robust automation combats these losses by automatically identifying errors and cleaning without human intervention a significant percentage of dirty claims, resulting in reduced denials, and faster and higher reimbursement rates.

Superior Automation and Artificial Intelligence Optimize Revenue

Capitalizing on XIFINs unmatched industry intelligence and more than 20 years experience with claims data, XIFIN RPM 11 is an AI-enabled RCM platform with workflow automation and advanced analytics. Artificial intelligence applied to revenue cycle data uncovers actionable insight that can influence workflow configuration decisions based on real-world payor behavior. AI also supports more timely discovery of changes in payor behavior and facilitates faster operational adjustments to mitigate impact. Historically, claim processing has been focused on productivity, but evidence indicates workflow configuration based on task effectiveness is more impactful.

XIFIN RPM 11 features more robust workflow configuration at multiple levels, including facility, client, payor or payor plan. XIFIN RPM 11 enables greater efficiency for both individual and batch claims. Unlike other RCM systems that require manual efforts once the claims are denied, XIFIN RPM 11 reduces costs and delivers denials and appeals process automation, including automatic generation of payor-specific appeal forms and appeal letters.

"Improving clean claim rates has proven to be a real struggle for the industry, and continuing to use manual processes isnt going to fix it. Technology, including AI, is the only way were going to solve the issue," said Lle White, CEO, XIFIN. "But these advanced techniques need high quality, clean data and enough of it to learn and improve. Its critical that lab leaders capitalize on available technology and data science to gain better visibility into their business, understand what they need to respond to and optimize their process, and ultimately increase cash flow and reduce costs."

XIFIN RPM 11 also allows labs to leverage expanded billing and payment collection options, including paper invoice suppression, patient notification letters and interactive statements.
