It is important that ambulatory surgery centers undertake investigative tasks to look into all old claims that may be problematic. Here are five investigative actions to take:
1. Run an aging report.
2. Identify specific carriers or aging trends and high-dollar claims.
3. Investigate any state- and payer-specific requirements for the facility’s geographical area.
4. Review all documentation on the claim.
5. Correct and resubmit the claim or appeal.
