The HCC & Risk Adjustment Challenge
In today's value-based healthcare environment, precise Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) coding and sophisticated risk adjustment capabilities determine your financial success. Manual processes and outdated systems create costly vulnerabilities:
- Revenue Leakage: Inaccurate risk scores and lost reimbursement
- Operational Burden: Manual reviews and time-consuming processes
- Compliance Exposure: Costly audit failures and penalties
- Hidden Risk Gaps: Unidentified member health complexities
Penguin AI: Your HCC Risk Adjustment Solution
Penguin AI transforms HCC code extraction and risk analysis by leveraging AI-powered automation, intelligent data interpretation, and comprehensive validation.
Our platform is designed to streamline operations, ensure coding accuracy for both Prospective and Retrospective models, enhance compliance, and optimize risk adjustment outcomes, while keeping a "human in the loop" for complex cases and ultimate oversight.
How we help
|
Automated HCC Code Identification AI-Powered Code Extraction: More than 90% of ICD code selection and HCC grouping is automated, drastically reducing coder workload and variability, while maintaining human-level accuracy. Predictive Intelligence: Proactively identify undiagnosed conditions by analyzing lab, Rx, and claims data to close care gaps and capture prospective HCCs. Advanced Configurable Rules Engine: Identifies potential HCC codes by evaluating clinical documentation against coding guidelines, payer-specific rules, and risk adjustment models. Full Model Support & Customization: Supports CMS-HCC V24/V28, HHS-ACA HCC, ESRD, and RxHCC models. Configure criteria by plan, line of business, or risk adjustment programs based on state regulations. |
Seamless Data Intake & Extraction Broad Intake Channels: Supports diverse data sources including EHR data feeds, claims data, secure provider portals, fax-to-digital ingestion, and APIs with real-time processing. Intelligent Clinical Data Extraction: HCC focused AI Language Models parse structured and unstructured data from physician notes, discharge summaries, lab results, and clinical documents. MEAT & Evidence Validation: MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, Treat) evidence validation dynamically captured from unstructured EHR notes with customizable logic for different provider types and payers, including pre-extraction checks. Longitudinal Data Integrity: Tracks member history to flag suspected missed diagnoses and suggest the deletion of non-relevant codes, ensuring record accuracy. |
|
Automated Risk Score Calculation Integrated RAF Score Calculator: Instantly calculate risk scores using the latest CMS & HHS models with all relevant demographic and plan factors. Built-in Trumping Logic Engine: Automatically resolves diagnosis hierarchies to capture the highest-value HCC and eliminate coding errors. Confidence-Based Code Approval: Auto-approve high-confidence codes while flagging others for manual review to optimize coder productivity. Seamless Core Integration: Connect with your core claims, enrollment, and risk systems via robust APIs for real-time data consistency. |
Comprehensive Compliance & Tracking V28 Transition Automation: Automatically applies the blended V24/V28 (33% / 67% blending) models to ensure calculation accuracy & compliance during the CMS phase-in. Provider Specialty Validation: AI confirms the rendering provider is authorized and the specialty is clinically appropriate for the diagnosis, reducing downstream denials and audit risk. Productivity-Driven Workflow: Boosts team efficiency with intelligent routing of cases to designated staff and customizable alerts for documentation gaps or pending reviews. |
