Interventional Radiology Operations Assessment

Interventional radiology is used to diagnose and treat a wide range of diseases with nonsurgical or minimally invasive techniques under imaging guidance. The APC reimbursement for invasive procedures includes the highest-weighted groups. Because of the complex rules for coding these services, providers may not capture all revenues due.

BKD National Health Care Group can provide a detailed review of internal operating procedures with emphasis on areas of concern to management. This review comprises walking through the charge capture process with personnel involved in the various stages and reviewing documentation samples.

BKD National Health Care Group can assess the following:

  • Fee schedule and charge capture
  • Department charge description master (CDM)
  • Charge ticket content and accuracy
  • Charge entry and accurate selection of CDM driven codes
  • Coding and documentation
  • Billing

I have used BKD at two different facilities for a full range of financial services. Their professionals have provided us with audit, tax, coding and billing and cost report services and have assisted us in operations management and revenue enhancement. Routinely, implementation of their recommendations had a positive influence on the financial outcomes of our programs.

Catholic Health Partners is an important client—that’s the clear message I get from BKD. From partner interaction to the hands-on involvement and accessibility of senior-level and other personnel, theirs is an adept team effort that works very well. They are highly responsive to our needs. I also appreciate the wide range of BKD services I can use for more complex business issues.

Last year our 60-bed facility census was low, there was no reimbursement and by December we were $100,000 in the red. This is when we hired BKD for the Medicare certification and training. The following fiscal year end we were $98,000 in the black and able to keep the facility running.
