Get paid for all the work you do.
Catch the claim problem while the note is still open, not 90 days later in a denial. Every claim checked, every visit billed, every denial traced to its cause.
Most denials start in the chart, weeks before the claim.
A note that does not support the time billed. A plan that changed and nobody noticed. An authorization out of units. Athon finds these while the note is still open and the claim is still a draft.
Before the note is signed
Time, units and code checked against what the note says. Diagnosis and level of care checked against the assessment and plan.
Before the claim goes out
Coverage, credential, authorization and payer rules checked on every claim. Signed visits with no claim found. Claims with no signed note stopped.
After the payer answers
Denials, takebacks and underpayments grouped by cause and traced to the note or rule behind them. Fix it once. See that it holds.
Every visit billed. Every claim right the first time.
Clean claims, the first time.
Athon checks every claim against the note, the coverage and the payer's rules before it goes out. Your biller clicks send.

Fewer denials. Faster payment.
Visits you delivered but never billed
Signed visits that never became a claim. Claims sent to a plan the patient left. Payers billed in the wrong order and the money taken back. Filing deadlines by date. Each with the amount and the next step.
Delivered, documented, and paid.
No authorized day lost. The chart supports the level of care.
Units and end dates tracked for every patient, with your renewal target. Initial and continued-stay requests drafted from the assessment, plan and notes. Where the record does not yet support the level of care, you see it before the payer does.
Up to 2.5× more approvals.
Fix the cause, not the claim
Denials grouped by cause, payer, program and clinician, and traced to the note or rule behind each one. Fix it upstream, in the note or the workflow. See whether the fix is holding month over month.
Fewer denials every month, and you can see why.

Reads the whole chart
Not just the claim line. The note, the plan, the assessment, the authorization and the eligibility response, for every service.
One note, both jobs
The same review that keeps clinical quality high makes the note support the code, the time and the level of care.
