Universe Scrubber
Traditionally, health plans commit resources for months while setting up all the data to comply with regulatory audits. Inovaare optimized the implementation process so that health plans can start using this powerful CMS universe validation and report generation tool within a week.
Inovaare’s Universe Scrubber scrubs Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) Program Audit universe reports and flags all crucial errors. This, alone, optimizes operational efficiency.
However, Universe Scrubber also analyzes universe tables for authorizations, claims, appeals and grievances CMS universes—such as Part C Organization Determinations, Appeals and Grievances (ODAG), Part D Coverage Determinations, Appeals and Grievances (CDAG) and Medicare-Medicaid Plan Service Authorization Requests, Appeals and Grievances (SARAG)—and other regulatory universes in real time. Payers can also monitor the health of their plans, on demand, by running Universe Scrubber monthly, weekly or even daily.
With all CMS universe tables embedded, Universe Scrubber provides access to real-time data so health plans can validate their CMS Program Audit universe tables in three simple steps:
- Upload universe file
- Scrub to validate
- Review and publish
Universe Scrubber empowers health plans to:
- Identify turnaround times and outlier issues, as well as errors in universe formatting, data and business logic
- Proactively audit and monitor first-tier, downstream and related (FDR) delegated entities
- Reduce effort in preparing universe submissions
- Increase productivity by improving collaboration within the organization
- Benefit from preconfigured business rules based on up-to-date regulatory mandates
- Customize configuration based on company-specific business rules
- Make better decisions based on automated analytics that leverages real-time data to generate intuitive dashboards and KPI reports
Universe Generator
Health plans can reduce the risk of penalties and lower CMS Star Ratings by increasing report turnaround times. Universe Generator will do just that by enabling users to create properly formatted universes with the click of a button.
Universe Generator gathers data for requested date ranges to create clean universes for submission, even from multiple submitters providing the same universe table. It then compiles scrubbed universes into a single table for continuously compliant CMS report submission.
Universe Generator can be prebuilt with each report in the approved format for layout and data type and, when used regularly, this tool empowers payers to continuously monitor the health of their plans.
Additional benefits allow compliance teams to:
- Generate universes with reduced dependency on IT teams
- Meet their own data requirements or query requests
- Maintain audit readiness at all times
FDR Universe Manager
Work collaboratively with your delegated entities through our FDR Portal, which accesses and consolidates CMS Program Audit universes submitted by delegates. This efficiency ensures health plans can produce more accurate results with fewer resources to manage, monitor and audit FDRs.
FDR Universe Manager allows a health plan’s delegated entities to scrub and submit universes for review and potential remediation through a secure portal. This reduces the back-and-forth communication typically required for delegate universe submissions.
The automated workflow takes care of the manual processes to:
- Identify outliers
- Expose potential risks
- Achieve faster turnaround times
- Reduce effort and costs
- Track FDR submissions and issues
Provider Dispute Resolution
Most states require health plans to pay healthcare providers accurately and timely for their services. In parallel, payers must maintain a fast, fair and cost-effective system for processing and resolving provider claims. Health plans must also submit annual reports regarding the number, type and provider claim payment-dispute summaries. They are required to describe the resolutions including terms and timeliness and explain how they are addressing trends or patterns in disputes.
With Provider Dispute Resolution (PDR), health plans can:
- Monitor and manage PDR processes efficiently
- Track provider disputes in real time
- Ensure consistent compliance
QIO Appeals
The Quality Improvement Organization (QIO) Program, one of the largest federal programs dedicated to improving health quality for Medicare beneficiaries, is an integral part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human (HHS) Services’ National Quality Strategy for providing better care and outcomes at lower costs. CMS relies on QIOs to improve the quality of healthcare for all Medicare beneficiaries.
Inovaare’s QIO Appeals solution helps:
- Ensure QIOs are tracked at each step, from intake through closure
- Guarantee each decision rendered is executed efficiently
- Support timeliness
Issue Management
Architected by CMS regulatory compliance experts, Inovaare ensures health plans can effectively track and manage issues that have been identified as a risk or potential non-compliance. This includes automating corresponding follow-up actions and activities. Inovaare's Incident Management module empowers regulatory compliance management teams to drive continuous improvement activities across the entire enterprise. Now, payers can analyze trends, draw insights across multiple departments, implement and track corrective actions and then accurately measure real-time results.
Inovaare ensures health plans can:
- Facilitate and centralize any incident that could potentially be a risk to the organization
- Determine if it is a risk or not (pre-screen or triage the risk/incident)
- Track resolution from start to finish
- Incident tracking & reporting (FWA, SIU, etc.)
Corrective Action Plan (CAP)
Inovaare’s Corrective Action Plan module automates CAP monitoring, assigns issues for resolution and records results of root-cause analysis. Now, health plans can:
- Automate or simplify the approval process
- Implement tasking and reporting
- Expedite resolution of issues identified within the organization and non-compliance issues regarding customer complaints
- Monitor CAP results to reduce errors, perform trend analysis and identify the root-causes
