How we help…
Almost anyone who has worked with reimbursement for med-surg devices and drugs can tell horror stories about lost charges in the tens of thousands of dollars. There are many reasons lost charges occur, of course. But they usually boil down to the fact that the information needed for clean, correct and compliant billing resides in separate departments and in separate IT systems.
Over the years, a few hardy pioneers have tried to gather that far-flung data into spreadsheets so they could manipulate it manually. But they quickly find missing, contradictory and even flat-out invalid codes, costs, charges, multipliers and descriptions needed to bill appropriately. Too often, the effort stalls right there: the problems look too massive to fix.
That's where Pharmacy ChargeLink® and Supplies ChargeLink®, two software solutions in Craneware's Supply Management product family, can help you. Both draw data from disparate sources and then consolidate it, normalize it and verify it against Craneware's proprietary regulatory and compliance knowledgebase. All to support you in establishing a critical connection between pharmaceutical and supply purchases and billing - improving your charge capture, coding and financial performance.
