The rising volume of external audits poses a serious threat to healthcare organizations that are ill-prepared to manage them appropriately. With current margins providing no room for penalties and paybacks, organizations must have appropriate audit appeal workflows and analytics to trend where they should align staffing and training improvements to have the greatest impact.

Join this HIMSS webinar to hear Melissa Barreras, RHIA, AVP of HIM Operations at Ardent Health Services discuss trends in external audits, explore recent focus areas outlined by the OIG and other entities, and detail how Ardent redesigned their audit response process to improve appeals success rates and clearly demonstrate financial impact.
