Key Responsibilities :

Utilization Review and Clinical Evaluation :

  • Review patient medical records, treatment plans, and clinical data to assess the appropriateness of the care being provided and the necessity for continued hospitalization or services.

  • Provide recommendations or alternative care options to improve patient outcomes and optimize resource utilization.
  • Insurance and Payer Interaction :

  • Submit necessary documentation and justification to insurance companies to support medical necessity determinations and secure prior authorization for treatments, procedures, or extended hospital stays.
  • Resolve any issues related to denied claims or requests for additional documentation to ensure that services are covered by insurance providers.
  • Monitoring of Length of Stay and Discharge Planning :

  • Monitor patient length of stay (LOS) to identify potential delays in discharge and ensure that patients are not staying in the hospital longer than necessary.
  • Work with case management teams to develop appropriate discharge plans, ensuring that the patient is ready for discharge and has the necessary resources and follow-up care.
  • Identify potential barriers to discharge and collaborate with the interdisciplinary team to address these issues and facilitate a timely discharge.
  • Compliance and Quality Assurance :

  • Ensure that utilization review practices comply with regulatory standards, including The Joint Commission (TJC), Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), and other state or federal regulations.
  • Assist with audits to evaluate the efficiency and accuracy of utilization management processes, making improvements where necessary.
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of healthcare regulations, coding guidelines (ICD-10, CPT), and payer-specific policies to ensure accurate documentation and compliance.
  • Documentation and Reporting :

  • Document findings from utilization reviews in the appropriate systems and ensure accurate record-keeping for insurance purposes and quality improvement efforts.
  • Prepare reports on utilization metrics, including patterns in hospital admissions, readmissions, and discharge delays, for management and leadership review.
  • Provide detailed, evidence-based rationales for medical necessity determinations and collaborate with the healthcare team to ensure compliance with UR protocols.
  • Case Review and Decision-Making :

  • Perform retrospective and concurrent review of patient cases to determine if the level of care aligns with guidelines and if resources are being utilized efficiently.
  • Recommend the appropriate level of care (e.g., inpatient, outpatient, skilled nursing facility) based on clinical findings and guidelines.
  • Provide feedback to clinicians and healthcare teams regarding any areas for improvement in care planning or resource utilization.
  • Education and Training :
