Kavingali has developed an Automated Cloud Revenue Utilization System (ACRUSTM) using robotic process automation and proprietary software to automate hospital utilization review processes in order to help hospitals more effectively collect the $125 billion in annual inpatient revenue that is currently lost due to inefficient review procedures. Their system uses digital robots that can access electronic health records and payer systems to complete utilization reviews with over 99% accuracy, reducing overhead costs compared to current options of using internal review staff or third-party contractors. The ACRUSTM system is presented as providing hospitals with a more efficient and accurate solution to address the large amounts of revenue lost each year

THE PROBLEM
60% of hospitals never appeal denials (utilization
review) leading to a loss of revenue
A 350bed hospital loses $3million per year*
According to Hospital Financial Management Association
For patients who are not automatically approved for inpatient
status, approximately 30%, will pass through a Utilization Review
(UR) system that is rife with inef
fi
ciencies to include:
Department organization and management
Understanding and adoption of regulatory guidelines
Clinical acumen and understanding of clinical criteria
Revenue cycle integration
Ef
fi
cient and accurate processes

CURRENT UR PROCESS
Healthcare systems currently have 3 options:
1. Lost revenue by not identifying and submitting
claims resulting in $125 billion (annually) of
inpatient revenue is never reimbursed
2. Subcontract with contractors (Optum, a
predominant subcontractor, is actually owned by
the commercial payer United Healthcare Group)
3. Internal RN sta
ff
that typically takes 40+ nurses
per 1,000 bed hospital system at a typical cost of
over $4,300,000 annually.
According to the U.S. Department of labor, 1.4 billion insurance claims are
fi
led every year out of which
200 million are denied due to non-compliance or due to improper
fi
ling.
4. OUR SOLUTION
Kavingali has developed a software
system that implements digital robots
(Robotic Process Automation RPA) along
with proprietary software reference
systems to automate the UR process.
