Portfolio assessment
Three workstreams ran together: converting paper claims to EDI 837, resolving provider identity against the enterprise master, and replacing the legacy claims engine. Each was reviewed monthly on what it changed for the business, not on output counts.
| Investment | Evidence lens | Where it stood |
|---|---|---|
| Claims automation | Net automation, manual-review share, rejections | 400,000+ claims converted over the program; keying team redeployed |
| Provider identity | False matches, fallouts, match rate against the master | 99% match in the proof of concept; migration funded |
| EDI shredding replacement | Claim data capture, enhancement turnaround and received-to-paid mapping | I led the replacement of Microsoft BizTalk with homegrown EDI shredding directly into a normalized datamart before adjudication. Capturing complete claim data reduced enhancement turnaround by 50% and improved received-to-paid mapping and CMS reporting. The LifePRO engine replacement, daily reconciliation and paper-to-EDI conversion were separate projects. |
| Reconciliation | Received against processed, daily | Daily audit in place; fallout surfaced for reprocessing |
- 400,000+ claims converted over the program keying team redeployed
- 99% match in the proof of concept migration funded
- reduced enhancement turnaround by 50% improved received-to-paid mapping and CMS reporting
Economic interpretation
Sample review: include exception handling and recovery, not only the automated path, in cost per claim. Test whether gains survive end-to-end accounting. Compare conversion gains with manual review and recovery: a conversion rate that rises while manual review rises faster would fail that test. Annual program result: The mailroom program saved about $1M a year.
