Pre-Submission Pipeline

Trigger: Claims batch ready for submission

1.Validate data completeness and code combinations
2.Score denial probability against payer-specific patterns
3.Flag high-risk claims with remediation recommendations
4.Route correctable claims back to billers
5.Route complex claims to human review
6.Submit clean claims to clearinghouse

Submitted claims are dramatically cleaner, denial rates drop, and A/R days shrink.

Use Case 2

Payer Pattern Detection

Trigger: New denial trend emerges

1.Detect anomaly in denial rates

A sample conversation with this agent

Run pre-submission on today's claims batch.
Processing 1,247 claims. Four-stage pipeline: (1) Data completeness validation — required fields, valid code combinations, patient eligibility. (2) Denial probability scoring against learned payer patterns. (3) Flag high-risk claims with specific remediation. (4) Submit clean claims to clearinghouse. Early results: 1,018 clean and submitting, 187 flagged for correction with specific fixes, 42 routed for human review. Average denial probability on flagged batch: 38% without remediation, 6% after applying my fixes.
Why did you flag claim #4421 for review?
Three issues: (1) Procedure code 99214 with diagnosis E11.9 (unspecified diabetes) — this payer denies 23% of unspecified-diabetes E/M claims; diagnosis can likely be coded more specifically based on the encounter documentation. (2) Missing NDC number for the administered J-code. (3) Prior auth number present but format doesn't match this payer's expected pattern. I've drafted the corrections and flagged for a biller to review before resubmit.
Which payer is denying us most frequently this month?
Payer X is at 14.2% denial rate this month (vs. their 9% historical baseline). Root cause pattern: 68% of their new denials are CO-197 (authorization) driven by a policy change on specialist referrals that took effect March 1. I've updated the denial model to catch these upstream, and I've flagged the policy change for your operations team. Payer Y and Z are stable. Recommending a Payer X outreach to clarify the new referral requirements.
