LexisNexis® Risk Solutions Solves for Critical Provider Data Inaccuracies Cited in CMS Directory AuditATLANTA, Dec. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recent CMS Online Provider Directory Review Report, provider directory accuracy has not improved since its first review published in early 2017. The most common driver of errors is the reporting inaccurately at the group level rather than the provider level. This and other problem areas outlined, can be solved with VerifyHCP™ – a robust central repository of provider information that streamlines and automates ongoing management and maintenance of provider data integrity. The CMS report summarized audit results of its Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAOs) including 52 MAOs, 108 providers per MAO for a total of 5,602 providers across 10,504 locations. Common deficiencies included:
LexisNexis VerifyHCP is built on one of the most comprehensive provider databases in the industry. It uses a single sign-on and has the ability to pre-fill, collect, monitor, cleanse and update data in an easy-to-use, efficient manner. Customers are realizing improvements in the quality of their provider data as a result of this approach. VerifyHCP makes it unnecessary for health plans to send physicians duplicative data verification requests, relieving physicians of the distraction from a barrage of uncoordinated requests from multiple health plans. VerifyHCP enables medical practices to validate or update directory information through a pre-fill channel for all participating health plans. VerifyHCP is a uniquely flexible solution to update practice details for multiple health plans, reducing costly administrative tasks for medical practices and health plans. At the same time, it streamlines compliance with network directory accuracy requirements for health plans and helps ensure patients know which of their physicians participate in their current health plans.
