DSI partners With Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital to Improve Registration Accuracy
08/27/09MOBILE, AL - Database Solutions, Inc. announced today it has signed an agreement with Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital to implement its automated quality assurance and reporting solution, AccuReg®. AccuReg is a hospital registration audit and reporting tool that audits for hundreds of financial, operational, and compliance issues, and in turn helps hospitals manage the inevitable human errors that occur at the point of patient registration.
According to Reese Walker, Lead Financial Systems Analyst at Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, “With increasing responsibilities in Patient Access, the need to gather even more information at the time of registration is greater. Incorrect or missing information often leads to denials, rejections, and also rework in our billing department. This technology solution will allow our facility the capability to audit various data elements for accuracy, which up until this point, has been an extremely time-consuming, labor intensive, and expensive process at Phoebe Putney. The AccuReg technology will allow our facility to audit 100% of our registration data for hundreds of different error types, including comparisons between our ADT data and the information we get back from our eligibility vendor. AccuReg will compliment Phoebe Putney’s commitment to improve our patient access quality and provide our registrars with the tools needed to self-correct their mistakes in a timely manner. We are excited to bring this much needed technology to our organization.”
Paul Shorrosh, President of Database Solutions, Inc. said, “We are excited to have the opportunity to work with Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital to improve accuracy of their patient registrations, automate manual review processes and streamline patient accounting and reimbursement. The most exciting aspect, however, is empowerment of their Patient Access employees to self-correct and therefore contribute greatly to both patient care and the bottom line. Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital has partnered with Database Solutions, Inc. because they see the importance of the role patient access plays in the overall revenue cycle.”
