Universe Scrubber for Medicare Advantage Plans
Stop universe errors before they become CMS findings
Pre-Submission Scrubbing
What Universe Scrubber catches
Field-level errors flagged with day-count deviations, expected format specs, and counts of affected records.
Timing
Timeliness violations
Intake, acknowledgment, or resolution dates outside CMS-mandated timeframes.
Structure
Schema and layout errors
Column headers, field order, delimiters, and record-per-row structure mismatches.
Population
Inclusion / exclusion violations
Records missing from the universe or records that should be excluded per CMS population logic.
Format
Date and time format errors
Non-standard formats (MM/DD/YYYY where CMS expects YYYYMMDD) flagged with the expected format.
Deduplication
Duplicate records
Cases appearing more than once across system exports, manual additions, or merge sources.
Completeness
Missing data elements
Blank required fields (member IDs, plan contract numbers, disposition codes) with affected record counts.

Standard data-entry errors
Standard data-entry errors (date and time format mismatches and similar field-level standardization issues) are corrected without manual intervention. This auto-correction is built into Inovaare's Universe Management System (UMS).
System Overview
How Inovaare's CMS universe preparation works
Ingest universe
Connects to your existing systems and file formats. No rearchitecting required.
Scrub against current CMS Program Audit Protocols
Rules update through configuration as CMS releases new protocols.
Flag with remediation guidance
Usher AI surfaces field-level errors with specific guidance: what is wrong and what to change.
Usher AI
Usher AI is Inovaare's embedded intelligence layer, purpose-built for healthcare payers. Once your universe files have been scrubbed, compliance teams can ask questions about their data in plain language and pull reports directly from their compliance record — no IT queue, no manual export. It is embedded across Inovaare's platform and available on demand throughout the audit cycle.

Compliance Leadership
Audit defensibility for compliance leadership
Evidence logs
Every action on the universe file is timestamped at the field level under role-based access controls, without manual notes or reconstructed audit trails after the fact.
Version control
Every change to a universe file is recorded and reversible. Compliance teams can produce a full change history at any point (before, during, or after an audit).
CAP linkage
Universe findings surface in dashboards alongside CAP tracking from Audit Management. The remediation path is documented in the same record, not improvised after the fact.
Universe Scrubber FAQ
In CMS program audits, a “universe” is the data file a Medicare Advantage plan submits to document its cases, decisions, timeliness records, and other required evidence across audit areas such as ODAG and CDAG. A universe scrubber checks those files before submission, catching field-level errors, timeliness gaps, and protocol mismatches so that deficiencies appear in your systems, not in a CMS audit finding.
Manual universe prep typically spans six to eight weeks of spreadsheet work, analyst review, and back-and-forth reconciliation. Inovaare replaces that cycle with a low-code, no-code rules engine that scrubs records against current CMS Program Audit Protocols. When CMS releases updated protocols, rules change through configuration rather than code. Usher AI surfaces field-level errors with specific remediation guidance at the point of review. Per Inovaare product specs, the prep cycle drops from six to eight weeks to under one week. Universe Scrubber pairs with Audit Management for CAP tracking and end-to-end audit workflow.
Yes. The low-code rules engine absorbs new CMS Program Audit Protocols as they are released, including the 2026 framework changes that retired ICAR and ORCA, introduced IDS (Invalid Data Submission), removed audit scoring, and simplified findings into a three-category classification: Observation, CAR (Corrective Action Required), and IDS. Under the 2026 framework, IDS findings are cited when universe data is inaccurate or incomplete, making pre-submission scrubbing a critical control.
Yes. Inovaare maintains HITRUST CSF certification on a multi-year cycle (currently v11.3), covering the Health Cloud Platform on which the Universe Scrubber runs.
The scrubber processes approximately 50,000 records per minute (expandable, per Inovaare product specs). Most universes are scrubbed in minutes, not hours.
Yes. The scrubber connects to existing systems via API, batch, web services, and streaming. It ingests universe files from SFTP, AWS S3, or local sources in Excel or CSV format. It layers onto existing infrastructure. No rearchitecting required.

Product Suite / Universe Management System
Universe Generator
Universe Generator is typically engaged when a health plan does not yet have a standardized universe-generation process in place. When required data elements are dispersed across multiple systems or not organized in CMS template format, our team designs and implements the extraction, mapping, and file-generation logic needed to produce structured universe files aligned with CMS specifications. Once structured universes are established, files can flow into the Universe Management System for validation and ongoing audit support.
Assessment and design
Evaluate existing data sources and identify required CMS universe elements across systems, departments, and delegates.
Data mapping and structuring
Define extraction logic, field mappings, and transformation rules to assemble CMS-aligned universe files from disparate systems.
File generation framework
Build repeatable processes to generate universe files according to CMS layout and submission specifications.
Transition to managed validation
Once generation logic is established, files can be routed into Universe Scrubber and other UMS modules for ongoing validation and monitoring.
Not generating structured universes yet? Let’s assess your readiness.

Self-service configuration empowers compliance and ops teams to manage templates, workflows, and rules without developer support. With fewer errors, faster CMS program audit prep, and 100% clean submissions, the return on investment is measurable across functions.
Product Suite / Universe Management System
Universe Scrubber
Universe Scrubber provides independent, CMS-aligned validation of your audit universes without altering source data, helping compliance and operations teams identify gaps early and reduce audit exposure. It flags structural errors, inclusion/exclusion issues, timeliness gaps, and template misalignment across ODAG (Part C Organization Determinations, Appeals, and Grievances), CDAG (Part D Coverage Determinations, Appeals, and Grievances), SARAG (Service Authorization Requests, Appeals and Grievances), FA (Formulary and Benefit Administration), CPE (Compliance Program Effectiveness), SNPCC (Special Needs Plans Care Coordination), and MMPCC (Medicare-Medicaid Plan Care Coordination) universes, while ensuring data integrity and audit defensibility. It provides a clear, actionable exception report so your team can close compliance gaps before submission or audit.

Product Suite / Universe Management System
Universe Curator
Universe Curator standardizes recurring structural and formatting inconsistencies before universe generation. It automatically corrects common issues such as date formats, time formats, and field nomenclature that often cause validation failures and resubmissions. For example, if a date appears as “dd/mm/yy” instead of the CMS-required “yyyy/mm/dd,” Curator reformats it according to defined rules. These corrections occur within a controlled processing layer and do not overwrite source systems. When paired with Universe Scrubber, Curator reduces formatting noise so logical validation focuses on true compliance gaps.
Automates formatting standardization
Automatically corrects common structural inconsistencies in date, time, and numeric fields based on predefined rules.
Integrates with Universe Scrubber
Helps prepare standardized data for rule-based validation, improving the clarity and accuracy of exception reporting.
Configurable correction rules
Allows health plans to define formatting and normalization rules aligned with internal standards and CMS template requirements.
Reduces resubmission risk
Minimizes recurring formatting errors that commonly lead to validation failures and submission delays.
