Denials

Denial Management

Triage, root-cause categories, and the workflow that prevents repeats.

Denial management is a queue discipline problem before it is a clinical or coding problem. Every denial needs an owner, a category, a deadline, and an outcome recorded against it.

These articles cover the categorization scheme worth using, how to build a working queue that sorts by recoverable value and deadline, and the reporting that turns individual denials into a process fix.
