The CDM Review service paired with our #1 in KLAS ranked charge description master (CDM) software helps ensure your organization is compliantly capturing every dollar of earned revenue. By combining the latest technology with certified coders and clinicians, Health Catalyst deliver comprehensive solutions that optimize charge capture performance.

Why Chargemaster Maintenance Matters

Keeping your chargemaster current with ever-evolving coding, billing, and regulatory changes is essential—especially in today’s environment, where hospital staff are stretched thin. Our services help:

  • Review and implement the latest regulatory and coding updates
  • Educate and empower your staff with targeted knowledge
  • Update policies and procedures to align with industry best practices
  • Identify opportunities for improved charge capture

Our review process includes detailed interviews with revenue-generating department staff and culminates in a narrative report. This report provides actionable guidance tailored to your organization, supporting implementation and sustainable improvements.

Flexible Integration with Any Revenue Software

Whether your organization uses Epic, Meditech, Cerner, CPSI, or another system, our team integrates seamlessly into your workflow. This flexibility ensures minimal disruption to your staff’s daily responsibilities while enabling a thorough and efficient review process.

Scalable Solutions for Any Facility Size

From 25-bed hospitals to 600-bed integrated delivery systems, our experienced team scales to meet your needs. We adapt our approach to fit your organization’s size, structure, and goals.

Comprehensive Data Review with a Personal Touch

With just a one-time data download—including your chargemaster, supply, pharmacy, revenue, and usage data—we conduct 22 proprietary analytics reviews. Every finding is then reviewed by our expert consultants to ensure alignment with your organization's culture, internal knowledge base, and best practice coding standards.

  • Claim Review: Enhance your chargemaster review with a 100-claim random sample audit to ensure alignment between charges and clinical documentation. This process identifies missed charges, validates compliance, and provides valuable insights to strengthen your chargemaster accuracy. It also creates a feedback loop that helps capture every earned dollar.
  • Concierge Service: Leverage the expertise of our seasoned consultants to support ongoing chargemaster maintenance, staff education, and optimization of charge capture workflows. This hands-on assistance ensures your team stays current, compliant, and confident in sustaining long-term revenue integrity.

The Challenge

Health systems that have acquired ambulatory care practices—and independent ambulatory practices alike—face tremendous financial pressures and challenges to financial sustainability. If you’re an ambulatory care leader, you’re looking to improve the efficiency of the services you provide and find cost savings without negatively impacting patient outcomes, the community, or the integrity of the organization. Yet it can be difficult to access data that brings actionable insights to inform decisions to improve patient access, panel management, provider productivity, referral management, or quality scores.
