New Mexico Orthopaedics Coding Study
By using ProVation® MD software for documentation and coding compliance, New Mexico
Orthopaedics demonstrated a 117% improvement in overall documentation and coding
accuracy, with a 53% decrease in professional documentation and coding errors and a
42% decrease in facility documentation and coding errors. We estimate the combined
annual facility and professional coding revenue lost to undercoding to be $596,000.
These issues were addressed through the use of ProVation software. |

Carolinas HealthCare System Harnesses Software to Eliminate Transcription, Increase Througput
In 2003, Carolinas Medical Center (CMC), the flagship hospital of Carolinas HealthCare System (CHS), went looking for an image
archiving the more
than 15,000 procedures performed each year in its Gastroenterology and Endoscopy Department.
They ended up with much more – a nursing and physician procedure documentation software
system from Minneapolis-based ProVation® Medical Inc. that allowed them to store images
electronically while eliminating $90,000 per year in transcription fees and increasing patient throughput by 1 - 2 patients a day. The country's fourth largest IDN, CHS has since implemented the software at Carolinas Surgery Center and Carolinas Pineville Hospital. |

Revenue Cycle Management Critical to Success at Golden Ridge Surgery Center
In July 2001, business was booming at Golden, CO-based Golden Ridge Surgery Center, which specializes in Orthopedic and Pain Management procedures. But unnecessary administrative costs, less than optimal coding practices and a poorly managed revenue cycle were threatening the center’s future. Together with Health Inventures, LLC, an ASC Management company, they found Orthopedic and Pain Management procedure documentation and coding compliance software by Minneapolis-based ProVation® Medical. The software enables the center’s surgeons to create highly detailed multimedia operative notes, while simultaneously coding the procedure – solving many of the center’s financial problems by directly linking them to their clinical causes at the point of care. |
