CODECYPHER Coding Compliance Engine allows ASCs run customized coding analyses on critical compliance issues and risks and opportunities, according to the release. The analyses pull information from the ASC’s medical records and coding data going back two years and identify coding errors, including the incorrect use of modifiers and errors in CPT codes.
CODECYPHER is specifically designed to target coding errors dealing with Modifier 59 as Modifier 59 errors account for a large proportion of total coding errors at ASCs. Accordingly, CODECYPHER runs automated an analysis of an ASC’s claims to address the following key areas of concern:
• Procedure combinations with potential Modifier 59 misuse
• Procedure combinations billed with NCCI Mutually Exclusive codes
• Opportunities to increase revenue by billing Modifier 59
• Procedures with inappropriate modifiers for ASCs
