Outpatient Services:
3M™ APC Assurance™ Program helps hospitals improve cash flow, prevent denials and delayed payments, and achieve accurate payment. We promote the accuracy and integrity of outpatient billing for compliance with CMS regulations.
3M™ APC Oversight assists your organization in grouping APCs, estimating costs and reimbursement, analyzing and reporting on outpatient claims data, and minimizing compliance risks. 3M consultants extract APC claims data from your billing system and assess critical areas in coding, charging, and billing that negatively impact reimbursement. 3M-defined reports graphically display areas for improving reimbursement, processes and compliance under the outpatient prospective payment system (OPPS).
The 3M APC Oversight Program is the optimal combination of information tools, training, and guidance to help organizations achieve appropriate OPPS reimbursement. This program is designed with daily, monthly, and quarterly reports and the support of teleconferences conducted regularly with an experienced consultant. Therefore, it does not require hospitals to have in-house OPPS experts, IT infrastructure, or sophisticated analyzing capabilities.
3M™ APC Oversight Trial is an introductory package that allows hospitals to experience the full benefits of 3M APC Oversight during a 90-day trial period.
3M™ APC Support Services support hospitals by providing access to 3M outpatient payment specialists via phone, fax, and email. Available on a yearly retainer basis, this service answers questions on hospital outpatient coding and billing issues.
