Begin Audit Planning the Right Way by Creating the Right Audit Universe
CMS audits utilize various universes like CDAG, ODAG, SARAG, CPE and other regulatory reports-to evaluate health plan performance. Despite current innovations, it has been a constant challenge for health plans to create and submit accurate, timely universes to avoid invalid data submissions and poor audit scores.
In fact, many organizations still rely on time-consuming manual processes, which are often riddled with errors, inconsistencies or both. However, by automating the process, health plans can be better prepared to generate and validate accurate, clean program audit universes that are ready for submission and, as a result, improve their operational efficiency for a healthier bottom line.
