Denials are consuming valuable time, resources, and revenue across healthcare organizations. As payer scrutiny intensifies and medical necessity criteria evolve, even minor documentation or coding errors can lead to costly delays in reimbursement. Many teams are stuck in a reactive cycle—appealing denials after revenue is already at risk—rather than preventing them upfront. Fragmented workflows, limited technology adoption, and inconsistent clinician engagement only add to the challenge.

This webcast delivers practical, data-driven solutions to help organizations take control of the denial management process. Attendees will learn how to strengthen documentation, coding accuracy, and team collaboration to stop denials before they start. Expert-led insights and real-world examples will demonstrate how analytics, dashboards, and predictive tools can reveal risks early, streamline appeals, and support smarter, technology-enabled workflows. Join us to build a proactive denial prevention strategy that protects your organization’s financial health.

Why This is Relevant:

This topic is highly relevant as denial prevention has become a top financial and operational priority for healthcare organizations. With payers intensifying audits and expanding medical necessity requirements, even small documentation or coding inconsistencies can trigger denials and revenue loss. Coding, CDI, and revenue integrity professionals play a critical role in identifying risks early, ensuring claims accurately reflect the patient’s clinical story, and maintaining compliance amid constant regulatory change. As denial complexity grows, mastering proactive, data-driven strategies is essential—not only to protect reimbursement but also to strengthen collaboration, improve documentation quality, and enhance overall revenue cycle performance.

Learning Objectives:

• Explain how complete, specific clinical documentation and accurate coding practices serve as the foundation for effective denial prevention.
• Identify common documentation and coding pitfalls that lead to denials and apply strategies to address them proactively.
• Utilize analytics, dashboards, and predictive tools to detect high-risk claims and integrate preventive measures into operational workflows.
• Apply real denial case studies to strengthen clinician engagement, enhance CDI and coding collaboration, and improve documentation quality.
• Develop structured, evidence-based appeal strategies that leverage clinical, coding, and regulatory guidance to overturn denials and recover revenue.

Who Should Attend:

Clinical documentation integrity (CDI) specialists and leaders, coding professionals and coding auditors, revenue integrity and charge integrity leaders, health information, management (HIM) directors and managers, and physician advisors and clinical leaders involved in documentation and appeals
