    Monitoring

    Continuous monitoring allows a health plan to quickly and easily keep its finger on the pulse of the delegates’ performance to identify potential risks or issues before they become major problems. This will help ensure compliance with needed regulations through the health plan’s ability to:

    • Expedite feedback processes to mitigate operational and enterprise risks
    • Utilize streamlined reporting processes to automate reviews and highlight elements that are approaching identified tolerances
    • Track findings, recommendations and corrective action plans, as well as trends over time, to quickly compare delegates and prepare for renegotiation when the time comes

    Audit and CAP

    Auditing delegated entities is essential for maintaining good governance, managing risk and ensuring compliance within an organization. Health plans can now efficiently oversee audits and perform file reviews of their delegated entities and vendors and maintain a system-wide overview of all compliance activities:

    • Deliver real-time audit results
    • Lower audit backlog, efforts and timelines
    • Help health plans with pre- and post-delegation audits of all areas of delegation
    • Create and manage Corrective Action Plans (CAP) for all audits that produce findings

    Pre-delegation audit

    The pre-delegation audit process involves a comprehensive review of the proposed delegates’ policies, procedures, and systems, as well as an assessment of their compliance with relevant technical and operational standards. The audit may also include a review of their financial stability and management structure. Our module helps guide the process through:

    • Facility Site Review audits
    • Medical Record Review audits
    • Credentialing Audits Pre- and Annual re-certification
    • Utilization Management audits including Quality Management (QM) audits
    • Special Needs Plan (SNP) audits
