Providers are quickly integrating AI into their documentation, coding, and appeals workflows. Plans are using AI to flag anomalies, automate review, and catch coding errors at scale. Many plans perceive provider AI use as a negative force driving more coding intensity and upcoding. But how can AI use by payers and providers be reframed to drive real-time, accurate claims adjudication that saves costs on both sides? This panel discussion brings together leaders from both perspectives to brainstorm collaboration strategies.
- Provider perspective: The impact of AI tools on claims accuracy and ‘coding intensity’
- Payer perspective: The impact of AI tools on provider relationships, communications, and perspectives on ‘coding intensity’
- How AI can be leveraged to enable collaboration and real-time claims adjudication
