Charge Capture Compliance Audits: The value of our Charge Capture Audits include:

• Using only Licensed Registered Nurse Auditors
• Owning Proprietary, State-of-the-Art Charge Compliance Software (called C-3), which allows the Auditor to Work at a more Productive Pace
• Educating your Hospital Staff to Charge Properly
• Providing Detailed Reports that Focus on Problem Areas essential to a Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) Program

Pyramid performs concurrent audits (correcting original itemized bills) and/or retrospective audits (correcting bills after the original bill has been submitted to the payor and paid). Our audit staff corrects undercharging errors and overcharging errors.

Charge Capture Protocol: In many cases, departments do not charge for all the goods and services in which they would receive revenues. This review includes an evaluation of the facility's department's charging protocols to ensure that goods or services are not "given away." Our review focuses on consistency of hospital charges and creation of formulas to determine patient charges. At the same time, we ensure that staff members responsible for charging have comprehensive protocols in place to ensure patients are charged appropriately
