Denial Tracking Program:
In keeping with our proactive management philosophy, Practicare reports regularly on the number and value of denied procedures. Given that these denials represent a significant impediment to optimal cash flow and Accounts Receivable management, we feel this innovation is central to bringing our clients value.

Our denial reporting indicates:
The number of procedures denied
The dollar value of those denied procedures
The percentage of overall denials on a per payer basis
The reason why the claim was denied
