Correct coding is an essential part of optimal

also a key component in avoiding external
audits by Medicare/Medicaid and other third
party payers. The use of actual clinical
documentation is the best way to compare
your coding to industry standards and
regulations. CCHIS can help assist your
organization in justifying medical necessity,
ensuring correct coding, and complying with
regulatory issues. Focus includes:
 Compliance and Regulatory Guidelines
 Coding Methodologies
 Medical Record Abstracting
 Clinical Documentation Improvement
 Communication of Results and Findings®

critical staff members and use

Leave the worrying to us.
CCHIS will take care of the entire
audit process by:
 Responding to the initial request
for records;
 Determining if and when to
appeal denied claims and;
 Ensuring timely replies
throughout the appeals
process.®
