Unlocking Faster Payments with XiFin® Empower RCM’s Embedded AI for A-321 Claim Status Codes Continued from page 5
The Power of the A-321 NLP Model The A-321 NLP model enhances the Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) process by addressing a key operational gap: the lack of actionable visibility into claim status updates , particularly from 277 claim acknowledgment and response files . The
New Dashboard The AI-generated reason codes are visualized in the new A-321 Dashboard, which provides: ■ Enhanced Visibility: See detailed claim data, including client, payor, status changes, and AI- assigned reason codes. ■ Prioritized Actions: Automate or manually assign the next steps based on actionable categories. ■ Insightful Analytics: Charts reveal denial trends, helping identify root causes.
main benefits of this approach include: 1. Translates Generic Claim Status into Actionable Intelligence
Traditional 277 responses from payors include vague or generic codes (e.g., “claim received,” “in process,” or “pending”) that offer little operational clarity. The A-321 model uses NLP to decode these into meaningful, human-readable messages , such as “Missing documentation for lab result,” “Pending coordination of benefits,” etc., enabling faster intervention. 2. Speeds Up Payment Collection Velocity By proactively identifying claims at risk of delay or denial early in the lifecycle, the model helps RCM teams prioritize follow-ups , fix submission gaps sooner, and reduce time to resolution, directly accelerating cash flow. 3. Enables Prioritization and Workflow Automation With model-driven categorization of claims, teams can auto-route claims to the right queue , such as documentation correction, secondary payor chase, or coding validation—improving throughput with fewer manual touches. 4. Reduces Denials and Rework By surfacing root causes and payor-specific patterns, preemptive action can be taken before denials occur , reducing costly rework and resubmissions. 5. Builds Intelligence Over Time The model continuously learns from historical claim patterns. This creates a feedback loop that improves predictability , allowing for smarter RCM forecasting and operational planning.
