RELATED SERVICES
WHAT SETS US APART:
G2N’s success as a medical records coding service is founded on a broader and deeper understanding of the gross to net revenue cycle in the healthcare industry. We feel so strongly about the value of this comprehensive approach that gross-to-net is the basis of our name: G2N.
When hospitals and physician practices take advantage of our expertise, through our full slate of related services, one of the most important results is peace of mind. Achieving a firm foundation is a big part of that “confident-to-code” feeling.
Maintaining that confidence is just as important. That’s especially true in a healthcare environment in which the only constant is change. Our clients deal with a staggering variety of systems, regulatory amendments and employee skill sets. That’s why G2N’S implementation plans are always customized, multi-disciplinary and thorough. We ensure that the implementation will dovetail with your resources, and we set forth new processes that will foster proper payment in a manner that is easy for your staff to maintain.
Know too that our concern for your success extends beyond an intimate and extensive knowledge base. Results depend on timeliness as well. When you engage G2N for any of our services we share your sense of urgency and strive to not only meet, but also beat deadlines.
CHARGEMASTER REVIEW AND MAINTENANCE
Compliance risk reduction and a solid foundation for charge capture are accomplished by G2N's experienced consultants. Given our focus on provider revenue cycle improvement and thorough understanding of current healthcare regulations and pricing trends, we are able to offer unique analytical insight for the optimum use of the charge description master (CDM).
SCOPE: G2N thoroughly examines all of the descriptions, HCPCS/CPT, revenue codes, and pricing for every charge item. Department manager education regarding any key changes is included in each CDM review. In addition,G2N also offers a unique CDM maintenance program that can be customized for each client to promote ongoing CDM integrity.
MARKET PRICE ANALYSIS
Significant net revenue yields can be obtained by strategic pricing. Across-the-board price increases often don’t maximize the ROI in market price analysis strategies. G2N's ability to compare line item pricing to like market entities often results in a meaningful increase of the hospital's profit margin, while ensuring fair prices.
SCOPE: G2N performs a strategic market price analysis of the provider's charge description master by assembling comparable charges for like entities in their market. G2N clients define the market compare group, set limits on price changes and control the pricing decisions. As an independent consulting group, G2N can offer these services to providers while maintaining the confidentiality key to pricing decisions. G2N can also link pricing decisions to charity and self-pay policies which are increasingly important.
