Products And Services

Health Revenue Assurance Associates is the leading provider of reimbursement integrity services for health information management and the entire revenue cycle. HRAA is recognized for providing customized, hands-on, strategy-focused and in-depth analysis of a hospital’s revenue cycle and their compliance, as well as APC, DRG, ICD9/10 coding and documentation audits. We also offer customized education/certification programs, chargemaster data integrity reviews, and solutions yielding measurable results, increased productivity, reduced unbilled accounts, improved payment accuracy and optimized revenue integrity. We are committed to providing the most intuitive revenue integrity solutions in the industry and our APC AuditPro™ is the leading internal auditing technology for outpatient claims.  

The HRAA coding solution provides hospitals and physicians across the United States with an experienced team of backlog coders to assist facility coding departments or provide outsourcing services. Certified HRAA associates are fully trained in both ICD-9 and ICD-10 platforms and supply hospitals and physicians with medical coding and billing expertise, while reducing the risk of error and maximizing accuracy, efficiency and profitability.
There are many styles of teaching and learning. The key to successful education is to first consider the expectation of your audience. If you would like to expose your audience to a new subject, then a onetime seminar or audio conference will suffice. Studies have shown that most people forget fifty percent of what is said in the first two minutes, and twenty-five percent after eight minutes, and the rest can retain the information only for about a month. Studies conducted by the US Department of Education show that we only retain 10-25% of what we hear after a 30 day period. HRAA offers various training and educational opportunities to its clients including Education Sessions, Coding Boot Camps, Workshops, and Webinars.
HRAA is known nationally for its expertise in coding, auditing and revenue integrity services. Since our inception in 2001, we have specialized in building reimbursement proficiency by focusing on the entire revenue cycle, not just coding, and by providing RAC oriented audits, education and consulting services. Because our approach is to focus on the client’s needs and develop the solution on an individual basis, our team possesses extensive experience in revenue cycle issues. We focus not merely on the revenue and codes, but on their operational uses. HRAA’s consulting services provide secure and effective solutions for complex regulatory challenges, internal inefficiencies and revenue cycle analysis.
ICD-10 codes must be used on all HIPAA transactions, including outpatient and inpatient claims with dates of service or discharge dates on and after October 1, 2013. Failure to convert by the federally mandated date will result in immediate rejection of all transactions so it is imperative that providers start now to prepare for the transition to ICD-10-CM. HRAA’s all-in-one ICD-10-CM program includes: education, coding resources while client staff is undergoing training, coding resources to handle backlog as productivity levels drop off and auditing resources to ensure retention and accuracy.
HRAA provides accurate and complete ICD-9 and ICD-10 diagnoses, which increases reimbursement efficiency and maintains compliance initiatives. Our audits increase quality control, revenue integrity, and prevent hefty fines for inaccurate or over-coding.
