Corcoran Compliance launches new Ophthalmic reimbursement software

Kevin Corcoran president and Corcoran Consulting Group co-owner Kevin J. Corcoran said the company’s clients tell us that coding software of current EMR programs are unreliable and difficult to use.

"Corcoran Compliance Connection performs that analysis for the user using robust algorithms derived from our twenty-five years of experience in reimbursement consulting," Corcoran added.

"Clearly, there is an enormous unmet need for a trustworthy and reliable expert coding and compliance system to support physicians, and we anticipate that Corcoran Compliance Connection(TM) will do so for ophthalmologists and optometrists."

Corcoran Consulting Group executive vice president and founder Suzanne L. Corcoran said the company has found that coding for eye exams is accurate and supported by the medical record in only 60-70% of all office visits.

"The 30-40% of claims for reimbursement of office visits that are not coded correctly or not supported by the chart notes pose a challenge for the practice," Corcoran added.

"Corcoran Compliance Connection(TM) can help reduce these errors and substantially improve compliance."
