Our quality assurance team works hand in hand with our appeals department to make sure your documentation is perfect when sent to the provider. Finally, our payment posting and reporting teams generate reports weekly so you know where you are financially when you need it most.
Utilization Management
We are experts in maximizing your client’s insurance benefits. Our utilization management team is led by an ASAM certified physician who provides oversight to our UR staff of clinicians by reviewing medical necessity documentation to make sure your patients obtain the longest stays at the highest levels of care.
We’ll help you and your staff in a number of ways, including:

Verification of Benefits
CodeMax’s verification of benefits process is efficient, timely, and comprehensive. We regularly achieve a 45-60 minute turnaround time. How do we get results so quickly and accurately? Our team members have extensive experience in verification and use advanced technologies.
Too often, the verification of benefits process is overlooked. However, it’s one of the most important steps in the revenue cycle management process. If verification of benefits is done incorrectly, all processes that follow will fail.
What to expect from verification of benefits from CodeMaxMB:
- Timely – 45-60 minute turnaround time on average
- Accurate – Cross-checked and detailed
- Informative – Warning disclaimers, exclusions, details revealed on unreliable payers
- Comprehensive – We compare prior data from similar payers and plans
- Guaranteed accuracy – We cross-check our results
CodeMax takes pride in our detailed processes when verifying benefits for our treatment providers’ patients. We use our large database of insurance policies and track the outcomes of the policies and insurance carriers.
Quality Assurance
Quality checks ensure that your billing and coding is always accurate and timely. At CodeMaxMB, we treat quality assurance as part of our regular processes. Our team double-checks everything we do. One inaccuracy can lead to a multitude of problems and wasted time, which is why quality assurance is such an integral part of our services.
