There are many reasons why fraudulent claims get paid—from insufficient staff and disparate record systems to incomplete data sets and mandated processing efficiencies. But health plans don’t need to wait until these erroneous claims are paid, only realizing issues in hindsight.

of surveyed organizations agreed that avoiding improper claims before payment was a challenge that requires payment integrity solutions.*
Our FWA Validation prepay solution helps maximize return by preventing the payment of fraudulent, wasteful, or abusive claims. We use numerous data points to identify potential patterns of FWA early in the claim process, impeding suspect claims and flagging those providers that warrant immediate investigation. In doing so, FWA Validation increases staff productivity by proactively identifying potential bad billing behaviors—and helps special investigative units (SIUs) build cases against those committing fraud.
