Revenue Integrity Support Services
The controls layer of the revenue cycle — charge capture audits, fee schedule hygiene, and reconciliation checks that find leaks before they compound.
Revenue integrity asks a different question than billing: not “did the claim get paid?” but “did everything that should have been billed get billed, at the right rates, with nothing lost between systems?” Leaks hide in the seams — interface gaps between EHR and billing system, fee schedules years out of date, charge capture habits that vary by provider.
Our revenue integrity support builds recurring controls: schedule-to-charge reconciliation, charge capture audits by service line, fee schedule review against current benchmarks, and system interface checks — each producing findings with owners and deadlines rather than reports that get filed.
Problems This Service Addresses
- Charges lost in interface gaps between clinical and billing systems
- Fee schedules unchanged for years, billing below market or below contract
- Charge capture varying wildly between providers doing identical work
- No recurring control that would catch a new leak when it opens
What’s Included
- Charge capture audits by provider and service line
- Schedule-to-charge and system interface reconciliation
- Fee schedule review and update recommendations
- Missed-revenue quantification with root-cause findings
- Recurring integrity control calendar with owner assignments
Who This Service Is For
- Groups that have grown past the point where one person can see everything
- Practices after a system conversion, when interface leaks are most common
- Owners who want financial controls, not just billing production
Risks and Operational Considerations
Fee schedule strategy interacts with payer contracts and market position — we provide analysis; pricing decisions rest with practice leadership.
Integrity findings sometimes implicate workflow owners; the program works best with leadership sponsorship and a no-blame framing.
How Our Revenue Integrity Support Process Works
Leak assessment
A defined review period is audited end to end — schedule to charge to claim to payment — to find and size the leaks.
Controls design
For each leak class, a recurring control is built: who checks what, how often, and what triggers escalation.
Operate and report
Controls run on calendar; findings are quantified and tracked to closure in a monthly integrity summary.
Revenue Integrity Support: Frequently Asked Questions
How is revenue integrity different from a billing audit?
An audit is a point-in-time examination; revenue integrity is the ongoing control system an audit usually recommends. Most engagements start with an audit to find and size the leaks, then install recurring controls so the findings stay fixed.
Where do you usually find the biggest leaks?
The seams: encounters documented but never charged, interface failures after system changes, outdated fee schedules, and inconsistent charge behavior between providers. None are dramatic individually — the total usually is.
